Biography

Amalie Moses was born to Leslie and Helene Moses and reared in Baltimore, Maryland, where she attended Forest Park High School. She attended Wellesley College and graduated in 1949, with high honors in history, and was a member of Phi Beta Kappa. She received her master's degree in education in 1963 from Boston University.

In 1949, she married Malcolm (Mac) Hecht Jr.,[3] with whom she had five children: Anne, Robert, Thomas, Jonathan, and Peter Hecht. The animal carousel for children in the Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy Greenway is named for Mac Hecht[4] because of her 2013 donation.[5][6][7][8][9] In 1975, following Mac's death in 1973, she married Dr. Edward Kass and became stepmother to his three children: Robert, James, and Nancy Kass.[10]
