J. A. Maryson

[4] Maryson was the second editor of the Yiddish anarchist newspaper Fraye Arbeter Shtime in 1890, following Roman Lewis.

In 1906, he advocated for anarchists to join in electoral politics to encourage governmental decentralization and counteract state socialism.

[11] Maryson organized the Kropotkin Literary Society to print Yiddish translations of European thinkers.

[9] Maryson handled some of the group's most challenging translations,[12] including Marx's Das Kapital, Stirner's The Ego and His Own, and Thoreau's Civil Disobedience.

[1] He married the intellectual and doctor Katherina Yevzerov, who became known for her writings on "the woman question" in the Yiddish radical press[14] and on women's suffrage.
