The Master of Seventh Avenue is the definitive biography of David Dubinsky, one of the most controversial and influential labour leaders in 20th-century America. A "character" in the truest sense of the word, Robert D. Parmet reveals that Dubinsky was both revered and reviled, but never dull, conformist, or bound by convention. A Jewish labour radical, Dubinsky became president of the International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union (ILGWU) in 1932 and went on to lead it for thirty-four years. Dubinsky famously championed "social unionism," which offered workers benefits ranging from health care to housing. Dubinsky's boundless energy was not limited solely to labour, and The Master of Seventh Avenue chronicles the activist's influential role as in local, national, and international politics. An extraordinary personality whose life and times present a fascinating lens into the American labour movement, Dubinsky leaps off of the pages of Parmet's meticulously-researched and vividly-detailed biography.
