Goodbye Again: A New Play by Allan Scott and George Haight ; Published by Samuel French, 1933 signed at front with production notes by Harrold A Weinberger, whose official titles at Metro-Goldwyn Mayer Studios was "Assistant Director" and "Production Manager," also filled in as a bit player at MGM whenever he was needed. The former Beacon boy, who went to the Fishkill Landing grammar school (later South Avenue School) and attended Beacon High School, had made the March 21, 1940 issue of the Beacon News as a headliner in a Local-Boy-Makes-Good story. The occasion was the newly released movie Northwest Passage starring Spencer Tracy a movie for which Harrold Weinberger was assigned as the assistant director. Part of his film duties on Northwest Passage was to round up and look after over 400 Indians to play in the picture filmed on location in Idaho. According to the newspaper, his work on this movie "was Mr. Weinberger s greatest contribution to the moving picture industry."

Found to be underage, he was discharged from the navy only to join the Canadian Army (again underage) to fight and to be gassed in battle in France in World War I. And during World War II, at the height of his Hollywood career, he joined the Marines as a combat photographer. At the battle of Iwo Jima, while filming the GIs on the attack, he was wounded by shrapnel. For his heroism in that battle Harrold was awarded the Bronze Star. After duty in the Korean War--his third major war in less than four decades--he retired from the Marines with the rank of Major. Dubbed the "oldest living Marine" by the Los Angeles newspapers, he began his interviews in a booming voice: "That is Harrold with two Rs." Harrold Weinberger died in 1997, at the age of 97. BB1.…
