K. writes in his biography:
"At age fifteen I arrived in
America. During the day I used to run around selling
Yiddish newspapers, and in the evening I am going to
learn the American language, until-- until I enter into
college, which they call the "shop." ...I am
caught in the powerful hand that has me oppressed for
sixteen years' time. Thus I have had the opportunity to
study my brother-workers with all of their sufferings
and freedoms. I have seen him laugh when his soul has
wailed, and I have seen his tired smile, who stresses in
a world with headaches that don't go away. I
eyngegenbet myself in the deepest corner of his
heart, and I have seen everything and for me in mental
records. I know him, the brother-worker, with all his
strengths and defects, and I have a deep love for him.
Later I have his sufferings
and freedoms melted down and have brought it onto the
red of the stage, and he, the brother-worker, has
himself seen and laughed through tears his own words and
jokes.
Almost all of my children
(comedies and dramas) are from worker's lives. ....Some
of those were devices, leytishe. Many of the
popular, well-known Yiddish critics have stood still and
had a few good words in what they say, and many of the
other great Yiddish artists have spirit, and they read
and they bring it to life, but many of my children were
libertines [hulties], creepy things, personal,
that there should be no meaning. One should not find
them inside any Jewish home."
In 1914, already a father of
two children, he again wrote at night for Yiddish
theatre, and he wrote the play, "On the Same Path[?],"
which a known Yiddish actor had later put on in the
"Lyric Theatre" in Brooklyn, obscuring the name, not
giving the name of the author, and with it toured across
America and Canada, where he had staged it.
K. wrote then a play, "The
Awakening," which he had brought to read to the
then manager of the "League of Yiddish Playwrights"
Sholem Perlmutter, who made him aware that a play under
the same name by Moshe Richter was just staged by Keni
Lipzin, and K. gave his consent to change the name of
his play. Perlmutter, not having any confidence in an
unknown playwright, did not read the play. In the summer
of 1916 he brought his new play to the dramatist N. Rakow, which was read for Kessler, begging
{Rakow] that Kessler
would not give the name of the author. Kessler [who] is the
play, especially the screaming end of the third act, was
not pleased that he hadn't bought the play. The play
also may have been staged in Newark's "Metropolitan
Theatre," which Joseph Schoengold also was supposed to
have taken on, but as there is nothing about it, the
play also had not been staged there.
As Perlmutter recalls, he
had received a proposal from the actors Saul and Esther
Wallerstein for a new play, and when he decided, they
submitted Rakow's play, "The Awakening," just the same
day that K. came to him, and speaking, he revealed that
truly the play is not Rakow's. But K.'s play, however,
was still staged there under the name, "His Last Dollar
[?]" with K. and Rakow [listed] as the composers. After
the great success of the play, it was bought by David
Kessler, and he had it staged on 5 November 1915 in his
theatre, under the name "The Mirror of Life, a drama in
our acts with a prologue and an epilogue by Kalmanowitz
and Rakow."
