With iconic and beloved songs such as “Sunrise\, Sunset\,” “If I Were a Rich Man” and “Matchmaker\, Matchmaker\,” Fiddler on the Roof is a story of humor\, heart and honesty. \nThen join John and a group from the MBJCC on Sunday\, April 6 to see the play for a matinee performance. \nThe Lunch and Learn is part of our Wednesday’s at the JCC – JCC-U \n9:15 AM – Coffee\, Conversation and Surprise Topic \nKickstart your JCC-U Day with the perfect blend of coffee\, engaging conversation\, and a dash of surprise topics. \nJoin the lively discussions led by the Moderator/Host\, Dr. Miriam Klein Kassenoff. \n10 AM – Music Appreciation with Dr. Alan Mason \n11:15 AM – Art History experience with Batia Cohen \n12:30 PM – JCC-U Lunch and Learn: with John Dalton presenting about Fiddler on the Roof! \nJCC-U Day of Learning \n$30 per week (Includes Lunch) \nMembers & Patrons: FREE (Includes Lunch) \nThis program was made possible by the generous support from Baptist Health

SUMMARY:FL JCC Virtual Author Event -Phillip Eil
DESCRIPTION:oin us for our virtual FL JCC Author Series with Philip Eil\, Prescription for Pain; How a Once Promising Doctor Became a “Pill Mill Killer” \nThis haunt­ing and propul­sive debut fol­lows a journalist’s years-long inves­ti­ga­tion into his father’s old class­mate: for­mer high school vale­dic­to­ri­an Paul Volk­man\, who once seemed des­tined for great­ness after earn­ing his MD and his PhD from the pres­ti­gious Uni­ver­si­ty of Chica­go\, but is now serv­ing four con­sec­u­tive life sen­tences at a fed­er­al prison in Ari­zona.

Through this one doctor’s sto­ry\, an era of unfath­omable tragedy is brought down to a tan­gi­ble\, and dev­as­tat­ing\, human scale. \nPhilip Eil is an award-win­ning free­lance jour­nal­ist based in Prov­i­dence\, RI. He is the for­mer news edi­tor The Prov­i­dence Phoenix.

SUMMARY:Talia Carner - Literary Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:The concluding luncheon for our Barbara Eisenberg Literary Luncheon Series is with best-selling author Talia Carner who will be presenting about her latest historical novel – The Boy With the Star Tattoo on Wednesday\, April 9 at 12:20 pm. \nThis is an epic historical novel of ingenuity and courage\, of love and loss\, spanning postwar France when Israeli agents roamed the countryside to rescue hidden Jewish orphans—to the 1969 daring escape of the Israeli boats of Cherbourg. \nNov­el­ist Talia Carn­er has authored six his­tor­i­cal and psy­cho­log­i­cal sus­pense nov­els that shed light on social indig­ni­ties and unex­plored his­tor­i­cal events. Both The Boy With The Star Tat­too and The Third Daugh­ter were named Final­ists by the Jew­ish Book Coun­cil in the Book Club Cat­e­gories. For­mer­ly the pub­lish­er of Savvy Woman mag­a­zine and a lec­tur­er at inter­na­tion­al women’s eco­nom­ic forums\, Carn­er turned from trail­blaz­ing projects cen­tered on women’s issues to fight­ing for Israel’s image. Born in Israel\, she lives in New York and Florida.

SUMMARY:Margalit Fox - Literary Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:Best-selling author Margalit Fox will talk about her latest book\, The Talented Mrs. Mandelbaum at the JCC’s Literary Luncheon on Wednesday\, April 9 at 12:30 PM. \nTabloid sen­sa­tion Fred­er­ic­ka Man­del­baum head­ed her own crime syn­di­cate in New York City from the 1870s onward\, spe­cial­iz­ing in “fenc­ing” stolen prop­er­ties and financ­ing bank bur­glar­ies. A pen­ni­less immi­grant bare­ly twen­ty years ear­li­er\, Mrs. Man­del­baum enter­tained a var­ied crowd at her din­ing table: politi­cians and police\, upper-class busi­ness lead­ers and their fash­ion­able wives\, and some of her tonier under­world accom­plices. She was a Jew­ish wife and moth­er and report­ed­ly an enthu­si­as­tic mem­ber of her local synagogue.  \nAfter being immersed in Mrs. Mandelbaum’s life and times\, read­ers may decide there’s real­ly no need to explain her suc­cess; she was sim­ply one of a kind. It’s a trib­ute to Fox’s sto­ry­telling tal­ents that this unique and mys­te­ri­ous woman has come to life. \nMar­galit Fox orig­i­nal­ly trained as a cel­list and a lin­guist before pur­su­ing jour­nal­ism. As a senior writer in The New York Times’s Obit­u­ary News Depart­ment\, she wrote the front-page pub­lic send­offs of some of the lead­ing cul­tur­al fig­ures of our age. Win­ner of the William Saroy­an Prize for Lit­er­a­ture and author of four pre­vi­ous books\, The Con­fi­dence Men\, Conan Doyle for the Defense\, The Rid­dle of the Labyrinth\, and Talk­ing Hands\, Fox lives in Man­hat­tan with her husband.

SUMMARY:Visages of Memory - Photography Exhibition Opening
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the opening of a special exhibition opening\, Visages of Memory and a conversation with photographer and Holocaust survivor Laszlo Selly at the Miami Beach Regional Library on Thursday\, April 17th from 6:00-9:00 pm.  The exhibition is part of the City of Miami Beach’s Culture Crawl evening.  Laszlo will be in conversation at 7:00 pm. \nVisages of Memory\, by Holocaust Survivor Laszlo Selly\, captures the life experience and resilience of the Holocaust Survivors he photographs. Their stories are told through these powerful images. . \nPhotographer Laszlo Selly\, a Holocaust survivor himself\, captured the visages of fellow survivors as seen through his unique lens. \nThe photographs include survivors from Austria\, Czechoslovakia\, Germany\, Hungary\, Poland\, Romania\, and the Soviet Union. Each photograph represents a terrifying story of survival and escape from the Nazis and their eventual migration to the United States. \nThis exhibition is made possible with the support of the University of Miami\, Miami Beach JCC\, and the Holocaust Memorial. \nAbout the Photographer: \nLaszlo Selly and his twin brother were born in Budapest\, Hungary\, on December 31\, 1937\, into a middle-class\, secular Jewish family. When Laszlo was six years old\, he remembered his mother sewing a yellow star onto his outer garments. Desperate to keep their twins safe\, Laszlo’s parents made the difficult decision to send them into hiding. This plan led to danger\, and they returned to their parents. Laszlo’s father obtained a Raoul Wallenberg certificate of protection that allowed the family to move to a safe house. \nAfter liberation by the Soviets\, Laszlo and his twin brother completed their education in Hungary under intense Communist indoctrination. The brothers escaped from Hungary during the 1956 Revolution and made their way to New York where Laszlo became a successful photographer. Today\, he lives with his wife Gail in South Florida and regularly shares his story with students at the Holocaust Memorial Miami Beach. \nThe exhibition is part of the Miami Dade Public Library System’s eightieth anniversary of the end of the Second World War\, a pivotal historical moment that continues to resonate profoundly in our global landscape. The Miami-Dade Public Library System proudly presents World War II at 80 – a year-long series honoring historical milestones. Enlightening panel discussions and presentations\, thought-provoking exhibits and book clubs\, along with other insightful events are planned throughout the year. Discover Miami’s role in this informative chapter of history and its ongoing relevance today. \nVisit https://mdpls.org/WWII to learn more and see the schedule of events.
