SAM (SHNITKA) SHAW . . . photo from 1948
SAM SHNITKA called Calgary his home town. He was born there on March 9, 1918. His mother, Mrs. Helen Rose lives today in Portland, Oregon. He was a student at UBC when he left as a volunteer to Israel in 1948 and he served there in a radar unit at Ramat David airforce base.
On .June 26, 1949 in Tel Aviv he married a girl from Czechoslovakia, Helen Rosulkova. They had a daughter, Yona, who is now 14 years old and lives with her mother here in Vancouver.
Shnitka later changed his name to Shaw and became, among other things, Vancouver stringer for Variety, the showbiz magazine. He also chose the films that were vShown locally on CBC TV.

If a visiting performer wanted to play golf, Sam Shaw arranged it with one of the city clubs. If" a show business person were sick in hospital, Sam Shaw made sure he had visitors.
The two facets of Sam Shaw — the tie-less individualist and the Good Samaritan -- were only the surface features.
His refusal to wear a tie was not derived from a twisted desire to be noticed, but a common-sense conclusion on his part: ties are restricting and ornamental only, therefore, why wear them?
Because it was an honestly felt conviction, Sam could interview the spiffest clotheshorse without feeling uncomfortable.
He helped people bedause he wanted to. It was as simple as that. Did someone want to hold a benefit for the family of a just died performer? Sam Shaw would volunteer his services.
