Chana Pollack
On January 21 from 6 to 8 p.m., discover the treasured metal plates used to print images in the newspaper back in the day, along with actual prints made from the plates using traditional equipment. Forward archivist Chana Pollack, who was instrumental in the creation of “Pressed,” will give a short talk about her work preserving and unfolding The Forward’s history.

Hello, fellow Forward reader! I’m Joel Brown, a Forward reader and supporter for more than 15 years, and currently the chair of the board of directors.
I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.
The Forward is committed to bringing you unbiased, nuanced Jewish news. From my position as board chair, I see an exciting future as we expand our position as the definitive independent voice of contemporary American Judaism.
— Joel Brown, Forward board chair
