Aaron Hamburger, Hotel Cuba - Literary Luncheon
2024-04-10 12:30 - 14:00 | FL
RSVP
Award winning author Aaron Hamburger is our Literary Luncheon guest on Wednesday, April 10 at 12:30 pm. He will present about his latest novel, Hotel Cuba.
Fleeing the chaos of World War I and the terror of the Soviet Revolution, practical, sensible Pearl Kahn and her lovestruck, impulsive younger sibling Frieda sail for America to join their sister in New York. But discriminatory new immigration laws bar their entry, and the young women are turned back at Ellis Island. With few options, Pearl and Frieda head for Havana, Cuba, convinced they will find a way to overcome this setback.
A heartbreaking, epic family story, Hotel Cuba explores the profound courage of two women displaced from their home who strive to create a new future in an enticing and dangerous world far different from anything they have ever known.
Aaron Hamburger is the author of the story collection The View from Stalin’s Head—which won the American Academy of Arts and Letters’ Rome Prize — and two novels, Faith for Beginners and Nirvana Is Here. His writing has appeared in The New York Times, The Washington Post, O, the Oprah Magazine, The Forward, and many others. He lives in Washington, DC.

College Admissions for the Jewish Soul
2024-04-11 19:30 - 21:00 | FL

Jewish students need to feel safe and supported on college campuses. We’ve seen the news, and navigating the colleges and the college admissions process can be stressful and confusing. This free seminar hosted by International College Counselors will help parents of Jewish teenage children to understand some of the following:
What’s changed in Jewish college life since October 7?
Which colleges reacted “best” and which performed “worst” post-October 7?
Should my child highlight or hide their Judaism in their college application?
How do colleges look at participation in religious activities like Jewish youth groups, trips to Israel, and Jewish community service projects?
In an essay, how should my student frame their Jewish activities?

Comedy Night - Brad Zimmerman
2024-05-02 19:30 - 21:30 | FL
Brad Zimmerman
My Son The Waiter is Actor/Comedian Brad Zimmerman’s hilarious and inspiring story about the grit and passion required to ‘make it’ as an artist and the sweet rewards that come from never giving up on your dream. Specifically, Brad moved to New York City and “temporarily” waited tables for 29 years, while continuing to pursue his dream of comedic acting. He never gave up and many years later, he’s opened for Joan Rivers, Brad Garrett and the famed George Carlin and now has his own touring show that is as profound as it is entertaining.
Brad Zimmerman is a very unique and original voice in the world of comedy. Watch a few minutes of his comedy and you will know you have never seen anything like Brad.
He works all over the country, doing theatres, comedy clubs, casino’s, country clubs, comedy festivals, JCC’s. I mean, you name it, he’s done it. He has worked with many well known comedians and entertainers such as Brad Garrett, Dennis Miller, Susie Essman, Julio Iglesias, and has been Joan Rivers’ opening act of choice for over seven years. In fact Joan has said, “I’ve had three great opening acts in my lifetime: Billy Crystal, Garry Shandling, and Brad Zimmerman.”
In the year 2006, Brad had the great honor of opening for George Carlin, and that relationship lasted until George passed away in 2008. The first time Brad opened for George, at the Paramount Theatre, just outside Chicago, right after finishing his act, George approached Brad backstage, and said, as only George could have said, “f**kin great!”
Brad combines years of acting training and standup, which is evident in Brad’s true pride and joy; his one man show. It is called, “MY SON THE WAITER, A JEWISH TRAGEDY,” and he has been working on it since 2005. In this part standup/part theatrical piece Brad tells a story of one man’s lengthy, and we do mean lengthy struggle to make it as an actor in New York. His send-ups on his childhood, his family, his misbegotten love life, and his career are as warm and poignant as they are hysterical. He performed the show Off Broadway in New York City for 15 months, and is now back on tour throughout the country.
In addition to this show, Brad has done work in both television and film, most notably playing Johnny Sack’s lawyer in one of the best television shows of all time, “THE SOPRANOS.”

Virtual Author Event: Jonathan Freedland- The Escape Artist
2024-05-13 15:30 - 17:30 | Virtual
Jonathan Freedland’s superb writing fills the reader with rage, despair, and admiration for the stubborn resistance of the human spirit. It is heart-wrenching to read the story of Rudolf Vrba, who is a mere nineteen years of age, and his fellow concentration camp inmate Fred Wetzler, who is twenty-six. It is the spring of 1944, and the two young men are enduring a harrowing incarceration in Auschwitz when the extraordinary happens. Melding their minds and spirits, they hatch an outrageous plan: They will be the first Jews ever to escape from the highly guarded prison. Once the world knows, they are certain that steps will be taken to save the Jews in Europe.
