- Архивная историяIrving Rosenwater was born on 11 September 1932 at Mile End in London. He was initially known as ‘Isidore’ and was registered as such on his first birth certificate, until his parents (Rosenwater’s father was Polish) decided to change his name. He was educated at Parmenter’s Grammar School in Bethnal Green, London. Rosenwater was a former assistant editor of The Cricketer magazine, founder editor of The Cricket Society Journal, a frequent contributor to Wisden, and a statistician for BBC and Channel 9. He was also a noted cricket writer – his book ‘Sir Donald Bradman – The Biography’, released in 1978, won The Cricket Society Literary Award. In 1970 Rosenwater became the cricket scorer for BBC TV, but he left in 1977 to become part of World Series Cricket. Rosenwater died in 2006 in Stepney, London. Rosenwater was an avid collector of cricket material and the majority of this collection is made up of the period when he worked for BBC and Channel 9 - in particular during the World Series Cricket era - and contains scorecards, scoresheets and reports from that period, as well as ephemera. Also included in this collection is MCC records from the late 1920s-early 1930s, including letters sent to its then Secretary, William Findlay – an indication of Rosenwater’s keenness for collecting any kind of cricket material. As Rosenwater was an MCC member he kept a lot of items sent to him during the course of his membership, such as invitations to events and notifications of meetings. The collection was acquired by MCC in 2012, with further additions in 2014.
