Lester Levenson’s Amazing Story
“I was born July 19, 1909 in Elizabeth, New Jersey into a middle class family as a very shy person. I tried to do things the way they were supposed to be done — doing the right thing, getting a good education, and being the best in my field. My natural inclination was towards science.

“I also went into various businesses, including restaurants, lumber, building and oil, intertwined with engineering, wanting to make money– wanting to make it in the world.
