Clinton Bamberger Papers (NEJL 33)
Oral History interview with Clinton ("Clint") Bamberger, https://repository.library.georgetown.edu/handle/10822/708954The papers of E. Clinton Bamberger Jr. document Bamberger's career as a legal services administrator, educator, and advocate. The collection, to some extent, also documents the history of legal services in the United States from the mid 1960's through the mid 1990's. And while some items such as articles and neighborhood law office handbooks and manuals pre-date the mid-1960's, the collection essentially begins with Bamberger's arrival on the scene as the first Director of the Legal Services Program (LSP) within the Office of Economic Opportunity (OEO). The collection covers his career as the first director of OEO/LSP, and later as the Executive Vice President of the Legal Services Corporation (LSC), the entity that evolved out of Legal Services' need for political autonomy. The collection also follows Bamberger's work as an educator at Columbus School of Law at The Catholic University of America, at the Legal Services Institute in Boston, at the School of Law of the University of Maryland, and also internationally as an educator and advisor of legal services.
In 1965 Bamberger became the first Director of the Legal Services Program within the Office of Economic Opportunity. The collection documents OEO's establishment in 1964, as part of the Economic Opportunity Act, and subsequent amendments made to the 1964 Act. Many of the speeches delivered by Bamberger while Director of LSP are included in the collection. The collection documents the political and philosophical attacks on LSP made by members of the political right: Reagan as Governor of California and Nixon as U.S. President, for example. Conservatives disapproved of federally funded suits against the government and favored a program called Judicare as an alternate method of legal services delivery. The collection contains materials related to the California Rural Legal Assistance (CRLA) case in which Reagan, as Governor of California, attempted to block OEO funds. In addition to these materials, there are materials which document Wisconsin as a test state for Judicare. Judicare was a program that would provide funds to private attorneys who in turn would provide counsel to those in need. This was a departure from the traditional model of having local offices staffed with legal services attorneys, who would dedicate their full efforts to legal services.
By the late 1960's, it became apparent that Legal Services required political autonomy. Much discussion and debate occurred as to the fate of OEO/LSP, and by the early 1970's the Legal Services Corporation (LSC) concept was formulated. The Legal Services Corporation would be an autonomous yet federally funded corporation. The hope was that LSC would be free from the political pressure that OEO/LSP had been susceptible to. After several failed attempts (including vetoes by the Nixon Administration) The Legal Services Corporation was chartered in 1974, and it began operations in 1975. The Nixon Administration essentially dismantled OEO. Bamberger became the first Executive Vice President of LSC. LSC carried on much the same work as OEO/LSP. Regarding LSC, the Bamberger papers focus primarily on the Congressionally mandated Delivery Systems Study , the Backup or Support Centers Study, and other studies related to LSC operations and management.
In 1979 Bamberger left LSC to become an attorney and educator at the Legal Services Institute (LSI) in Boston. The Institute functioned as a legal services office, while providing real world clinical training to third year law school students from Harvard and Northeastern Universities. This material and the material Bamberger acquired while a professor of law at The Catholic University of America and the University of Maryland, consist(s) mainly of educational and training documents related to the provision of legal services. Also included are materials related to professional ethics and professional responsibility, and materials related to the issue of law school students (via law school clinics) as deliverers of legal services.
Internationally, Bamberger acted as an advocate and an advisor on the provision of legal services. The collection contains a wealth of materials related to legal services in several countries, most notably: Australia, Canada, South Africa, Micronesia, and The United Kingdom. Bamberger's subject files contain documents related to specific subjects including: Judicare and group legal services, professional ethics, and access to legal counsel.

A reformatted version is available on DVD.E. Clinton Bamberger, Jr. was born in Baltimore, MD on July 2, 1926. He earned a B.S. degree from Loyola College (Baltimore) in 1949, and graduated from Georgetown University Law Center with a J.D. in 1951.
After law school, from 1951 to 1952, Bamberger worked as a law clerk to Judges Charles Markell and Edward Delaplaine of the Court of Appeals of Maryland. In 1952, Bamberger became an associate with the Baltimore firm of Piper & Marbury; and between 1958 and 1959 he also served as Assistant Attorney General of Maryland.In 1960, Bamberger became a partner of Piper & Marbury, where he was involved in insurance litigation. He also served as the attorney for death row inmate John L. Brady in Brady v. Maryland, 373 U.S. 83 (1963), in which the Supreme Court ruled that withholding exculpatory evidence from the defendant violated the Due Process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. Bamberger became involved in the case through a friend, a Jesuit priest who served as chaplain in the Maryland penitentiary.In September of 1965, Bamberger became the first Director of the Legal Services Program (LSP) within the Office of Economic Opportunity (OEO), the first program of the federal government to provide financial support for civil legal services to the poor. While at OEO/LSP Bamberger spent much time delivering speeches, attempting to garner support for the new government program . His stay at LSP was brief, and in mid-1966 Bamberger left LSP to run for State Attorney General of Maryland. That campaign was unsuccessful and Bamberger returned to Piper & Marbury until 1969. (For major accomplishments while at OEO/LSP see 1st annual report of OEO/LSP).In 1969, Bamberger became Dean of the Columbus School of Law at The Catholic University of America. There he taught Civil Procedure and Professional Responsibility. In 1975, Bamberger left The Catholic University of America to become the Executive Vice President of the Legal Services Corporation. Maintaining that he had spent much time as a legal services bureaucrat and advocate, and never as a legal services attorney, Bamberger left the Legal Services Corporation in 1979 to become a staff attorney and clinical instructor at the Legal Services Institute (LSI) in Boston, but controversy and politics surrounding LSI forced Bamberger's departure.In 1982, Bamberger left LSI to become Professor of Law and Director of Clinical Education at the School of Law of the University of Maryland. While at the University of Maryland, he served as the attorney for Denise Sampson in Ronald Fishkind Realty v. Sampson, 306 Md. 269, 286, 508 A.2d 478, 487 (1986). While at the University of Maryland, Bamberger also became very involved in international legal aid, especially in South Africa, Australia, Nepal, and the Netherlands, and frequently traveled abroad, lecturing about international legal aid. He retired emeritus from the University of Maryland in 1991

Albert Bamberger Collection 1938-1947 Bulk dates: 1938-1941
This collection primarily consists of letters written to Albert Bamberger from his parents and brother between 1938 and 1941. His mother was able to acquire an affidavit of support for one family member to immigrate to the United States from Germany, in 1938; Albert was chosen and settled in Baltimore. The letters mostly concern the (ultimately failed) emigration attempts of Bamberger's parents and brother. The collection also contains other correspondence as well as materials reflecting Bamberger's efforts to secure his family's immigration into the United States.LBI has digitized Joyce Bamberger's A Right to Return, a fictional account based on her father Albert's attempts to help his family emigrate (MS 795).Albert Bamberger (1921 - ) was born in Wiesenfeld, Germany, to David Bamberger (1889-1942) and Jette (née Ring) Bamberger (1895-1942). He had a younger brother, Arthur Bamberger (1925-1942). In 1938, Albert's mother was able to acquire an affidavit of support for one family member to immigrate to the United States. Albert was chosen. In October of 1938, he arrived in New York, together with his uncle and aunt, Leo Ring and Liesl Ring. They settled in Baltimore.Bamberger spent the next three years trying to enable his parents and brother, as well as his grandfather, Markus Hermann Ring, to leave Germany. He spared no effort soliciting support for visas and raising money for bond, ship passages, and the transport of their belongings, but to no avail. In April 1942, Albert's parents and brother were deported to the Izbica concentration camp in Poland and are assumed to be have been murdered there.During the war, Albert enlisted in the United States army and served in Panama.

Geschichte und Erlebnisse der Familie Heinrich Bamberger, Frankfurt, waehrend der Hitler-Zeit in Deutschland
The memoirs were written shortly after World War II in the United States and were translated by the author's son Frank Bamberger in 1978. The history of the family is traced back to the 19th century. The memoir continues with a discussion of the fate of the extended family during the Holocaust. Elisabeth Bamberger reflects on German Jewry and their blindness towards the dangers of the rising Nazi movement. Some pre-1933 Nazi political actions are described. Elisabeth's husband Heinrich was a member of the Centralverein and became active in attracting foreign countries to the sad happenings in Germany. The memoir recounts daily life under the Nazi regime and numerous "spontaneous actions" by the police and the SS, including the anti-Jewish boycotts. Other features of life under Nazism which Elisabeth describes in her memoir include Nazis among former acquaintances and employees, experiences of denunciations, and the fear of house searches. The memoir also describes some Jewish responses to the persecution, such as the performances of the Juedische Kulturbund. Heinrich’s health worsened and he died in the 1930’s. The Bambergers' children were sent to boarding school abroad. Their son, Willi, eventually emigrated to Ecuador, while their daughter Friedel went to Rome and from there to England. Another son, Franz, immigrated to the United States in 1938. The recollections continue with the Kristallnacht of 1938, the beginning of the war, and the growing threats and rumors revolving around the idea of deportation. Plans to leave on a ship from Genoa to South America in 1940 were canceled due to Italy's entrance in the war. Elisabeth Bamberger finally managed to emigrate via Russia and Japan to Ecuador. These experiences are recorded in a separate memoir (ME 28).Folder 1: Original handwritten memoirFolder 2: German transcript, preface by Fred S.
