David Pinski and wife Adele
lived in Manhattan (New York City) for many years.
From grandson Gabriel:
"My father grew up in the large brownstone family house
at 773 Beck Street in the Bronx. I am not sure exactly
when David Pinski moved to Manhattan, but the only
location I can remember he and my grandmother living in
during my youth was 229 West 78th Street (corner
Broadway) on the 14th floor (I think) of an apartment
building. I lived at 92nd Street and Broadway less than
a mile away.
Apart from his writings, he was always active in
Labor Zionist organizations including Histadrut and the
Farband. He was also on the board of HIAS. He used to
travel a lot on lecture tours but not after my
grandmother had a stroke in 1946. He always sent me
picture postcards
which I have, of course."

grandfather.
