In 1959, Harold Perelson seemed to be a man with everything going for him. He had a distinguished career as a doctor, a beautiful wife, loving children, and a wonderful home in the Los Feliz neighborhood of Los Angeles that was ideal for what seemed to be the perfect family.
And then on the night of December 6, neighbors were awakened by the sound of Harold Perelson’s daughter, Judye, screaming and banging on their door...When the police arrived, they entered the Perelson house and found Harold’s wife, Lillian, dead in her bed and Harold himself dead from a massive drug overdose. He had apparently committed suicide.
A copy of Dante’s DIVINE COMEDY was open on Harold’s nightstand, highlighting a passage that read:
Midway upon the journey of our life, I found myself within a forest dark, for the straightforward pathway had been lost…
It might as well have been Harold’s suicide note.
