Film, Television,<br />

and the American<br />

Jewish Story<br />

Sunday, May 22 at 2 pm<br />

As American Jewish writers, directors, and producers have become<br />

increasingly comfortable with their heritage, an unprecedented<br />

number of television shows and movies spotlight Jewish<br />

protagonists, experiences, and challenges. Join Dr. Eric Goldman<br />

for an exploration of the evolving social, political, and cultural<br />

situation of American Jews, seen through the lens of film and TV.<br />

Dr. Goldman will be discussing<br />

the films and shows pictured<br />

here—and many more.<br />

Dr. Eric Goldman is Adjunct<br />

Professor of Cinema at Yeshiva<br />

University, founder of Ergo<br />

Media, and author, most<br />

recently, of American Jewish Story<br />

through the Cinema. In 2014, he<br />

joined Robert Osborne on the<br />

Turner Classic Movies television<br />

network to co-host the monthlong<br />

series, The Projected Image:<br />

The Jewish Experience on Film.<br />
