203:(CID). Goldstein began using his own house at Vandeventer and Westminster Place in St. Louis, MO as his office, utilizing his downstairs area as "a waiting room, offices, examination rooms, and an operating room," while the rest of the Goldstein family lived on the upstairs level. Only months after converting his home into his clinic space, an additional area was built onto the back side of the house for postoperative patients to temporarily live, which Goldstein respectively called "the hospital." In 1910 a woman came to Goldstein seeking his help in educating her daughter, who was deaf. He allowed the child to live in "the hospital" while he would work with her in scholastics and other speech practices on a daily basis. Soon after her admittance, word spread of his work and the number of requests for children to work with Goldstein surpassed what he alone could handle. In 1914, he hired two teachers of the deaf to work with just four children. By 1916, this small operation had outgrown not just the two teachers, but Goldstein's entire house. With this predicament the first CID building was constructed on South Kingshighway. This building housed 38 students and 11 teachers all devoted to deaf education. By the time of his death, CID would be internationally acclaimed and would have more than 300 enrolled students from the U.S., as well as several foreign countries. In 1929, the second school building was constructed on South Euclid Avenue where CID expanded into adult auditory rehabilitation. At this time the training standards for teachers of the deaf were raised, requiring two years of pre-professional college education and a two-year professional curriculum, to ensure the highest quality education possible for their deaf students. While the intention of CID was the education of deaf children, "a second mission of great importance was the training of teachers of the deaf." Goldstein was noted to go out of his way to personally instruct the newly hired teachers in deaf education methods. By the time of his death the institute had seen over 700 trained teachers employed to further deaf education.

Goldstein had many memories of his friendship with Keller, but was always "particularly pleased" to recount the story detailing how he taught her to Fox Trot at a ball in Boston. Over the course of the fundraising night, many of the attendees witnessed Keller's linguistic abilities and asked her many questions. The night eventually came to an end and, against all odds, many generous donors made the night a massive financial success.

He developed a compassion for the families burdened with the struggles of inadequate care and education for the deaf. His concern for providing a better education would begin the foundations of the

at its peak, and philanthropy not being a common investment of time or money, Goldstein sought to further expand CID through fundraising. He began planning a fundraising night, which he would host, for the institute's 25th anniversary. He signed a contract for a night at the St. Louis
Municipal Auditorium and began to prepare. The centerpiece of the event was to be his close friend

By 1901 he had published eight scientific articles and presented his work on deaf education at several scientific meetings including the inaugural scientific session of the

Following his debilitating stroke, he purchased the two apartment buildings next to CID with his own money for its expansion. On July 27, 1941, Goldstein died at his summer home in

Despite his successes, Goldstein's mission in furthering the legitimacy of CID was not yet complete. The only issue was funding for further expansion of the institute. Goldstein was once described as an "entrepreneurial showman," which he fully lived up to in 1939. Despite the Great
Depression being

By 1940, clinical advances and expansion of the fields related to hearing and deafness continued to feed the growth of CID and more building space was once again needed. Goldstein pushed to buy the land directly adjacent to the existing CID buildings, but a project of such a scale was turned

He donated the land from the apartment buildings to CID. A decade later, in 1951, the land was used for the building of a cutting edge clinic and fully outfitted research lab, which contained one of only two anechoic chambers in the U.S., subsequently allowing dozens of important findings

One of
Goldstein's "most formative experiences abroad" was his opportunity to work with Adam Politzer and Victor Urbantschitsch at their clinic in Vienna. It is apparent that Goldstein's work throughout his career was inspired heavily by these two individuals, as throughout the subsequent
