[Cz-L] Theodor Meir Bikel...

For your historical notes:

 

Famous Jewish actor, folksinger, guitarist, author, lecturer and storyteller
Theodor Meir Bikel was born in Vienna in 1924. However, his parents were
 from Chernivtsi.

 

His father, Joseph Bikel (b. Josef Hasenfratz), dated my paternal
grandmother, Amalie Lobl, and his mother, Miriam Bikel (b. Maria Gisela
Riegler), dated my paternal grandfather, Chaim Riven Bernhard. Obviously,
things didn't work out on either side, which is good for me!

 

Riven (Richard) met Amalie after both entered the US, in 1920.
