  • Summary

  • Send us a text

    This week's episode discusses the history of the New Jersey State Insane Asylum from World War I until just before the Great Depression. Find out what circumstances led to the on-the-job death of the superintendent and find out what changes were made after a new superintendent took over. Finally, learn which ward was a favorite among the staff and public officials.

    My two sources for this episode include various annual reports from Greystone Park (from the NJ State Library website), as well as excerpts from the Images of America book on Greystone Park Psychiatric Hospital by Rusty Tagliareni and Christina Mathews.
