Jack Rose (LOC)

• Richard Norton said:

  en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacob_Rosenzweig Jacob Rosenzweig (1875 - October 4, 1947) was an American gambler and underworld figure in New York City. He was one of several star witnesses in the Becker-Rosenthal trial, among these being fellow gamblers Bridgie Webber, Harry Vallon, and Sam Schepps. Rose's testimony was the most damaging because he directly implicated Becker in arranging the murder of Herman Rosenthal. As Becker's debt collector, Rose confessed to hiring the Lenox Avenue Gang, providing the getaway car. He testified he did it all on the orders of Charles Becker.

• abounding wind said:

  If I am not mistaken, F. Scott Fitzgerald used him as the model for Wolfsheim, the gambler and mobster who befriends Jay Gatsby. There is a scene in the book that refers to the entire Becker case, etc.

• Arden said:

  Thank you Richard Arthur Norton for the details and other name of Jack Rose. Thanks also to Wystan for finding the matching photo. We will add some of this information when we update.
