In the late 1940’s, our long time client, Lester Cohen, was captain of his Tilden High baseball team in Brooklyn, New York. Mr. Cohen has been involved in various businesses, including the development of medical instruments, during his twenty plus year tenure at World-Wide Business Centers’ 575 Madison Avenue location. But one of the most treasured moments in his life was when he had the opportunity to interview the great Jackie Robinson (who had recently moved into the neighborhood) in 1947 for an article he wrote as a sports writer for the high school paper.
This is the picture taken that day. Lester Cohen is to the far right, wearing the Tilden team jacket.
