Here is my story May 8, 1953 Dear Emma, Do please accept this letter in the same friendly spirit as it is being written, because it is I that is responsible for the misunderstanding. Many years ago you told me good naturedly, “Fannia, you are getting away with murder”. This remark stuck to me as a "pick of a raven", paraphrasing the famous American poet Edgar Allan Poe. Here is my story. I had one brother who was very dear to my mother and to all of us. He was almost killed in a little “pogrom" in Russia. Though I was young at that time my brother and I decided to migrate to the United States […] it was the Triangle fire that decided my life's course. This tragedy influenced then my decision to join the labor movement […] I joined Local 41, I.L.G.W.U. and went to work in a shop and kept my story to myself. […] (FC to Emma, 1930, Correspondence, FCP/NYPL)

My life story I did not reveal to anyone. I kept it to myself as I wanted to avoid a sensational impression. The only person who knew about my story was Professor Charles A. Beard, and this was due to the fact that my brothers and Professor Beard had a mutual friend who revealed to him this “secret”. This explains why in his essay on the Workers’ Educational Bureau he refers to me in these terms, and I quote “of her life and labor an American epic, can be written.” […] But I admonished Professor Beard not to tell anyone about it, not even his wife who is a good friend of mine. So, he too joined the “conspiracy”. (FC to Emma, 1930, Correspondence, FCP/NYPL)
