Dr. Abraham Stilman, physician-author, of this city, today was awarded the H. M. Caiserman Award for 1962 for his two books, “Healer of All Flesh” and “Mariette.” Dr. Stilman has been for many years the medical columnist of “The Eagle,” a bilingual Yiddish-English daily newspaper here.
The H. M. Caiserman Award was established by the Canadian Jewish Congress in memory of the organization’s late general secretary, and is made each year “for distinguished work in the field of Jewish arts and letters.”
