Rosalind Solomon - Marriage

Marriage

In 1952, Solomon went on a “blind date” with Jay Solomon, a Tennessean, who was in Chicago for the Democratic Convention. Rosalind Fox and Jay Solomon attended the last night of the convention when Senator Estes Kefauver conceded to Governor Adlai Stevenson.

Within a year, Rosalind Fox and Jay Solomon married. She moved to Chattanooga, Tennessee where her husband worked in his family’s movie theater business. When he was 32, Jay Solomon was diagnosed with polycystic kidneys, a progressive, and, at that time, a fatal disease.
