Born: June 15, 1935, Lawrence
Occupation: Registered Nurse
Ethnic Background: Italian
Interviewer: Mary Armitage
Comments: This is a good, general ethnic interview, with an interesting comparison made between living in Florence, Italy and Lawrence, Massachusetts. The narrator is married to a Florentian, but was born and raised in Lawrence. Also of interest is her reference to a man called Antifurnario, the father of her aunt. She said he was an organizer during the Strike of 1912, and was banned from Lawrence and went to live in Lowell.
