WISE: DAVID SHOLTZ - FLORIDA'S NEW DEAL GOVERNOR, 1933-1937
Wisdom In Senior Education (W.I.S.E.) is a program offered by the Daytona State College
Foundation to promote and share the academic college resources with our senior community,
providing learning opportunities in an enjoyable format. In the depths of the Great
Depression, Florida elected an unconventional candidate as governor. David Sholtz
was a resident of Daytona Beach who campaigned with hopeful optimism during a time
of despair. Brooklyn born of Russian Jewish immigrant parents, Sholtz surprised the
state's political establishment to become the 26th governor. Tackling Florida's problems
with cheerful confidence, Sholtz's story is one of hope tempered with the social and
political realities of the time during a turbulent period in our state's history -
presented by DSC Associate Professor Todd C. Richardson, J.D. Free to WISE members.
