Biographical History
Leo Newmark was born on May 22, 1861, in San Francisco, the son of J.P. Newmark, nephew of Harris Newmark, and great-nephew of Joseph Newmark, all transplanted Prussians who were prominent members of California's Jewish community. Leo Newmark graduated from Boy's High School in San Francisco in 1877 and spent one semester at the University of California, Berkeley, before finishing his education in languages and classics in Germany. He later received his medical degree from the University of Strasburg and studied neurology in Germany, France, and England. He returned to San Francisco in 1890 and was soon licensed to practice medicine in California. Newmark started the first neurology department in the western United States at San Francisco Polyclinic and was a lecuturer at U.C. Berkeley medical school. He was a frequent contributer to medical journals, and was also an avid scholar of literature and languages. Newmark died on December 30, 1943.
