Museum Explores the Jewish Experience
The Museum of the City of New York presents a series of events in conjunction with the exhibition The Jewish Daily Forward: Embracing an Immigrant Community.
Ruth Westheimer will discuss the Bintel Brief, the Forward’s recently revived advice column, with Forward Web editor Daniel Treiman; Broadway producer Stewart Lane, New Yorker film critic David Denby, actress Tovah Feldshuh and others will explore the ways in which Jews have influenced Broadway and Hollywood; Joseph Berger will talk about his new book, “The World in a City” (please see book review on this page), and filmmaker Kate Feiffer (daughter of artist Jules) will attend a screening and lead a discussion on her documentary “Matzo & Mistletoe,” which examines American secular Judaism.
Museum of the City of New York, 1220 Fifth Ave. (at 103rd St.); Nov. 7-25; for further information, call the museum or visit its Web site. (212-534-1672, ext. 3395, or www.mcny.org)
The Forward is free to read, but it isn’t free to produce
I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward.
Now more than ever, American Jews need independent news they can trust, with reporting driven by truth, not ideology. We serve you, not any ideological agenda.
At a time when other newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall and invested additional resources to report on the ground from Israel and around the U.S. on the impact of the war, rising antisemitism and polarized discourse.
This is a great time to support independent Jewish journalism you rely on. Make a gift today!
— Rachel Fishman Feddersen, Publisher and CEO
