The intermarriage, uniting separate social and business spheres, would have been almost unthinkable decades earlier. And it’s probable that Jacob, had he been living, would have fiercely opposed the union, fearing, as did many observant Jews, it would dilute his family’s Jewish faith. Such concerns would not have been meritless: today the Schiff family, while appreciating their Jewish roots, are Episcopalians.
