in a podcast
This edition
is a Kennedy compound
Put me down as a fan of the Kennedys. Jack, Bobby, Ted, it didn't matter. I have a faded poster of each
in my office. There was just something about them. Call it what you will. Style, grace, charisma. They had
it all.
This edition of 01907 has a couple of solid Kennedy connections. Midge Costin is the daughter of
former Lynn Mayor Thomas P. Costin Jr., who had a close friendship with President Kennedy starting at
a young age.
Midge has cut and edited sound effects for major motion pictures since the 1980s. The former Nahant
resident made her directorial debut this year with "Making Waves: The Art of Cinematic Sound," which
stresses the importance of sound in movies. The documentary premiered at festivals worldwide, including
the Tribeca Film Festival in New York City, and the Festival de Cannes in France.
"I always wanted to make this film because I want to tell the world how I discovered the power of
sound," Costin said. "Fifty percent of any movie you watch is sound." Bella diGrazia has the story.
When Dr. Steven Perlman talked about how his chance encounter with Eunice Kennedy Shriver
led to an avocation in helping the intellectually disabled, it got my notice. Perlman has been recognized
worldwide for his work with the Special Olympics and other organizations. Steve Krause has the story.
If you are a fan of "Mystery Science Theater," you'll enjoy reading about David and Alexandra
Townsend and their "My Comical Romance" podcast.
From the time Alexandra was a little girl, her father, David, would read to her. They both concluded that
many of those stories were silly, and would make fun of them. They graduated to comic books when she got
older, and ridiculed them, too. Now, their podcast does the same thing. Bella diGrazia has the story.
Esther and Arthur Goldberg have always believed in giving back. This summer, the Swampscott
couple received the Dr. Bennett I. Solomon Community Leadership Award for their lifelong
commitment to Hillel and philanthropy to the local Jewish community. Stacey Marcus has the story.
For 25 years, the JCC of the North Shore has hosted some of the world's top authors at its Jewish Book
Month Speaker Series. Its 2019 silver anniversary year started off strongly at Tedesco Country Club Oct. 24,
when The New York Times bestselling author Ben Mizrich read from his "Bitcoin Billionaires," sharing the
story of identical twin brothers Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss and their big bet on crypto-currency. Bill
Brotherton has the story.
Love was in the air at the The Nahant Country Club. U.S. Air Force veteran Kady Hammons married
Staff Sgt. Joaquin Gonzalez on the grounds of the mansion earlier in the fall. The couple won a free
wedding in a contest held by the country club for military couples. Bridget Turcotte has the story.
We have some other fine features in this edition, including a picture series about SWAMPtoberfest
on the Town Hall lawn, and an original poem about the town by Carl Stevens, otherwise known as the
reporter with the booming voice on WBZ News Radio.

The music of sound
Midge Costin's documentary is Making Waves'
BY BELLA diGRAZIA

WINTER 2019 | 07
This here is my whole
passion. I wanted to
expand beyond
my classroom.
That's why I
made the
movie.
— Midge Costin —
Midge
Costin
is making waves with her
film that teaches viewers the
importance of sound.
Since the 1980s, Costin has cut
and edited sound effects for major
motion pictures, but the 63-year-old
Lynn native, and former Nahant resident,
made her directorial debut this year with
"Making Waves: The Art of Cinematic
Sound." The documentary premiered at film
festivals worldwide, including the Tribeca Film
Festival in New York and the Festival de Cannes in
France.
Costin, the daughter of former Lynn Mayor Thomas
P. Costin Jr., screened the film at Lynn Auditorium
in September, and all ticket proceeds went to student
film and television programs at Raw Art Works and Lynn
English High School.
"I always wanted to make this film because I want to tell
the world how I discovered the power of sound," Costin said.
"Fifty percent of any movie you watch is sound, but people don't
know this because visuals process in our brain in a way where
everyone thinks vision is everything. We don't process sound
the same away. We don't have an awareness on how powerful and
emotional sound is."
She came up with the film concept in 2010, began shooting in 2013,
completing 90 interviews and getting 200 hours of footage, and finished
it at the beginning of this year. She interviewed sound crews that worked
on such motion pictures as "Star Wars" and "Saving Private Ryan," and
had one-on-one interviews with award-winning directors Barbra Streisand,
Robert Redford, Ryan Coogler, Steven Spielberg and George Lucas, all of
whom she has worked with.
The film was completed just in time for its world premiere at the Tribeca
festival in the spring. It also screened at the Academy Awards in October.

"It's pretty crazy because it's kind of
the little film that could," Costin said.
"As sound people, we aren't used to
being in the limelight but it was amazing
seeing people of all ages love it. They
come up to me and are so excited about
it, and we even got reviews from writers
that said they'll never watch films the
same way again."
Costin has always had a passion for
film, but the love for cinematic sound
came later and happened accidentally,
she said.
She studied art history as an
undergraduate at Smith College in
Northampton and fell in love with a
French/Italian film class her senior year.
Upon graduation, she moved to the San
Francisco Bay area, where she attended
the Berkeley Digital Film Institute.
There, Costin said she learned how
to work with 16mm film, which is a
smaller picture width compared to the
more common 35mm. She went on
to graduate school at the University
of Southern California School of
Cinematic Arts.
"When I was in film school, sound, to
me, seemed too technical and a process
you did at the end of the movie," said
Costin. "I always panicked when I did

sound because I just didn't get it or
understand its significance."
During her senior year at USC,
Costin was finishing up classes while
working on her thesis and was looking
for a way to make some cash. She got a
call from an old college friend who told
her he got a job as a sound editor and
none of his co-workers knew how to
work on 16mm films like she did.
"I lowered myself to take a sound job
because I needed the money," she said.
"But when I got the job, I realized I was
now responsible for thinking about how
to set the mood and tone for films and
how to reflect the character or tell the
story using only sound. I immediately
became interested."
When she got her start, there weren't
many women cutting sound effects on
major action films, she said. Her first
union Editors Guild picture was "Days
of Thunder," which, she said, is the film
where stars Nicole Kidman and Tom
Cruise fell in love. She was in charge of
all sound effects for the race car driven
by Rowdy Burns (Michael Rooker), the
nemesis of Cole Trickle (Cruise).
She was sound editor for the 1995
thriller "Crimson Tide" and the 1998
action movie "Armageddon," all while
teaching part-time at the USC School of
Cinematic Arts. In 2000, Costin became
a tenured professor there, teaching sound
editing and sound design to students
including Coogler, the American
director of "Creed," "Black Panther" and
"Fruitvale Station."
"(Coogler) took my sound classes
before he became the director he is
today, and he didn't understand it at first
either," said Costin. "He and his sound
partner ended up writing the screenplay
for 'Creed' in my classroom."
A handful of movies that featured
her sound have won Academy Awards.
Costin received the first endowment
from directors Lucas and Spielberg
for the Kay Rose Chair in the Art of
Sound and Dialogue Editing in 2005.
In November, Costin headed to the
Critics Choice Awards, where she was
nominated as Director for Best First
Feature.
While all the accolades are an honor,
she said her biggest accomplishment has
been spending decades teaching people
to listen.
"I am beyond excited," Costin said.
"This here is my whole passion. I wanted
to expand beyond my classroom. That's
why I made the movie."

Esther and Arthur Goldberg
believe in giving back
BY STACEY MARCUS
Philanthropy and supporting one's
community have always been intricately
woven into the fabric of Esther and
Arthur Goldberg’s lives. “You have to
give back,” said Arthur, managing partner
of Nathanson & Goldberg, a Bostonbased
law firm. “Giving back and being
part of the community
is an integral part
of our upbringing,”
added wife Esther, a
nationally-recognized
and award-winning
WW (Weight
Watchers) group leader.
This summer, the
couple received the Dr.
Bennett I. Solomon
Community Leadership
Award for their lifelong
commitment to Hillel
and philanthropy to the
Jewish community on
the North Shore and in
Greater Boston. More
than 400 individuals
gathered at Legal Sea
Foods in Boston to
celebrate the Goldbergs
and enjoy a performance
of the Tony Awardwinning
musical "Dear
Evan Hansen" at the
Boston Opera House.
The Solomon
Community Leadership
Award was established by Cohen Hillel
Academy (now Epstein Hillel School) in
Marblehead to serve as a living legacy to
the school’s principal and to recognize
individuals' commitment to the school
and its community.
Esther served as vice president
for both Hadassah and Temple Israel
Sisterhood and as a board member of
Hillel Hebrew High School, an affiliate of
Prozdor. Arthur has held many leadership
roles in the community, notably at
Epstein Hillel School as a member of the
board of directors, finance committee,
and board of trustees as well as Greater
Boston chairman of Israel Bonds and
president of Kernwood Country Club.
Both are an only child of Holocaust
survivors.
On a scorching summer day in 1974,
Arthur’s secretary invited the couple to visit
Devereux Beach in Marblehead. They drove
from their apartment in Medford, where
Arthur and Esther Goldberg of Swampscott stand in the playground at the Epstein Hillel School in
Marblehead that they helped renovate. The Swampscott couple received the Dr. Bennett I Solomon
Community Leadership Award for their philanthropy to the school and the Jewish community.

the temperature hovered near 100 degrees.
Arthur noted the couple’s attraction to the
area, the beach air and the solid Jewish
community. “Let’s take a shot!” he said to
Esther when a handyman’s special on West
Street became available. “The handyman
moved in,” he said, then laughed.
The Goldbergs moved to Bradlee
Avenue in Swampscott four decades ago.
“Swampscott is a tremendous place to
raise kids,” said Arthur, pointing to the
beaches, parks and sports as key attributes,
along with great restaurants and public
transportation. He served as chair of the
Swampscott Finance Committee for
four years and was a School Committee
member for three years.
“We love the small-town feeling
here,” said Esther, who fondly recalls
their children’s active involvement in
sports programs.
The Goldbergs became involved in
Epstein Hillel when their son, Howard,
attended the school
when it was based in
the lower level of the
former Temple Israel in
Swampscott. They were
instrumental in rallying
the community to raise
the funds necessary
to construct Epstein
Hillel’s permanent
home in 1986. Both
have worked tirelessly
to support the school,
even after their
children graduated.
"We both went to
Hebrew day school and
wanted our children
to go to Jewish day
school,” said Esther.
Arthur recalls his
mother telling him that,
“A child’s laughter is
God’s music.” Her words
were the inspiration
for the couple in the
creation of the Goldberg
Family Park.
They are the proud parents of three
grown children, all Hillel alumni:
Howard, class of 1991, who is special
projects coordinator at the school;
Miriam, class of 1993; and Jason, class of
1997. They are even prouder grandparents
of Wes, Wyatt, Max, Vera, and Remy.
The Goldbergs currently reside in The
Landing at Vinnin Square and adore
their life in Swampscott. “Walking along
the beach is so beautiful,” said Esther,
who said it looks different each time.
Arthur enjoys time at the Swampscott
Club, where he likes “hanging around and
watching people walk on the beach.”

Two peas in a podcast
Dad, daughter find humor
in old romance comics
BY BELLA diGRAZIA
For Swampscott resident David
Townsend, it started off as sharing
bedtime stories with his daughter.
Now, it’s a podcast series.
When Townsend’s daughter,
Alexandra, was 7 years old, they shared
the book series “The Boxcar Children.”
Then, they read through the “Nancy
Drew” books. They enjoyed those, but
quickly realized the plots and character
storylines were silly and basic.
“I would be reading the story to
her, but I would start making fun of it,
while reading,” Townsend said. “I’d start
making up dialogue that wasn’t really
there and she liked it. Then we began
Alexandra Townsend and her dad David.

looking forward to it every
night, finding the dumbest
stories and poking fun at them
with our own versions of the
story. We laughed so hard
every single night.”
Then, Townsend said,
the bedtime stories became
readings of romance comics
from the 1950s that he picked
up at local comic book stores.
Their love for poking fun
at stories grew even more
with the vintage comics’
melodramatic plots and soapopera
like characters, he said.
The father-daughter duo
recently launched a once-a-month
podcast, “My Comical Romance.” They
dig into the romance comics and make
fun as they do a dramatic reading,
said Townsend, a telecommunications
consultant. They also lightheartedly
address important topics, like the
storylines' sexist nature.
“By '50s standards, it was very sexist
because it’s always the girl falling for
the guy and he’s the one who makes
the decision of ‘Are we going to be in
a relationship or not?’ and she just sort
of follows him around with a sickpuppy
kind of attitude,” Townsend said.
“They treat falling in love as a disease
or catching some virus. It’s like one day
you meet somebody and instantly you’re
in love and there’s nobody else in the
world.”
Townsend, 60, said the podcast is
the best way to keep a close relationship
with his daughter, who lives in Vermont.
Whenever they meet up, they record
an episode together. With two already
released on streaming services, they are
slowly building up an archive, he said.
“My dad was the one who really pushed
for it,” said Alexandra Townsend, 30. “He
wanted a project we could do together,
and comics seemed the natural choice.
The goal is just to have fun with it, but
spending time with my dad and analyzing
something I’m interested in, while making
An image from the story "Those We Care For," from Lovelorn #6,
June-July 1950, American Comics Group.
a lot of jokes, is a good time overall.”
Alexandra introduced her father to
podcasts. The one that inspired their
podcast series is “Titan Up The Defense,”
which addresses superhero comics “Teen
Titans” and “The Defenders” in a joking
way.
“They were doing exactly what we
ended up doing,” he said. “It’s odd when
you think about it, because comic books
are visual and podcasts are purely audio.
You have to be able to describe what’s
happening while giving that visual
element to listeners without just reading
it aloud.”
Alexandra said she enjoys analyzing
the romance comics because she finds
them fascinating from a sociological
perspective. The writers were a bunch of
middle-aged white guys deciding what
young women wanted in romance, she
said.
The father-daughter duo eased right
into recording for an audience because
they had so many years of practice. They
release one episode a month, but once
they perfect how to record long-distance,
that is likely to change.
“My dad and I have always been
really close,” said Alexandra. “He raised
me after my parents got divorced. He
kinda raised me into his sense of humor,
so it really means a lot to me I am able
to do this project with him.”

HEALTH CARE HERO
Dr. Steven Perlman has spent his life
helping the intellectually disabled
BY STEVE KRAUSE
It started with a phone call out of
the blue 25 years ago.
Dr. Steven Perlman, a
Swampscott pediatric dentist
whose practice on Broad Street
in Lynn was thriving, received
a phone call. On the other end of the
phone was Eunice Kennedy Shriver.
"That," said Perlman, 73, "was a big deal."
Shriver explained that her sister,
Rosemary, in a sanatorium in Wisconsin,
was in desperate need of dental work. In
fact, dentists at the sanatorium wanted to
pull all her teeth, but needed permission
from Rosemary's caregivers — Sen.
Edward M. Kennedy and his sister
Eunice — to do it.
"Eunice said 'No way,'" said Perlman.
Rosemary Kennedy was born mentally
challenged, and since her condition
was made worse, according to written
accounts, by a botched lobotomy, the
Kennedys felt they needed a pediatric
dentist to tend to her teeth.
"How does the Kennedy family find
a pediatric dentist 1,500 miles away to
work on their sister, and then fly her to
Boston to work on her?" Perlman asked.
Perlman was happy to accommodate
even though that meant making sure
Kennedy was healthy enough, and stable
enough, to make the trip to Boston and
be treated.
"I had to know she was capable of
flying in, and whether she would be able
to receive general anesthesia."
Perlman said Kennedy was flown
into Boston and taken to Lynn's Union
Hospital for the procedure.

were Secret Service men who never left

Now, Eunice is impressive enough,"
Perlman said. "But this was R. Sargent
Shriver. Founder of the Peace Corps. Ran
for vice president. And here I am, in a
room with them."
Eunice Shriver wanted to talk about
dental care for the intellectually disabled.
"I said to her 'Forget that. I want
to talk about health care for the
intellectually disabled," Perlman said.
And so they did. He cited statistic after
statistic to Kennedy Shriver, and when
he was done talking with her, he said she
had a revelation.
"She said 'I've worked all my life to
help intellectually disabled people, and
I've never thought about their health,'"
Perlman said.
"She asked me what I was going to do
about it," he said.
He said he told Kennedy Shriver
that if she'd allow him to use the Special
Olympics as sort of a bully pulpit he'd
try his best to make sure the most
vulnerable among us are treated the
same, medically.
The pilot program he developed,
through Boston University — where he'd
gone to school — was to work first on
Special Olympians, and, eventually, the
intellectually disabled.
He started slow — at the 1993
Massachusetts Special Olympics.
"My colleagues and I at Boston
University screened everyone
competing," he said. "This was the
moment health care changed for people
with intellectual disabilities and the
beginning of Special Olympics Health
Athletes."
Around the same time Perlman got
his program up and running, a New
Jersey optometrist, Dr. Paul Berman,
recognized a similar gap in the vision
care offered to those with intellectual
disabilities. And with the help of the
Special Olympics and the American
Optometric Association, Berman led the
creation of visual screening for athletes.
The program, now known as Special
Smiles and Lions Clubs International
Opening Eyes, were the seeds that
germinated and grew into the largest
global public health organization
dedicated to serving people with
intellectual disabilities.
Soon, the two became a team. They
recruited health care professional
volunteers to conduct screenings, educate
their colleagues and the athletes to

her side, and she had a nun who was
assigned to her full time. She never left
Rosemary's side."
Perlman worked on her for five hours,
never having pulled a tooth.
"It was an exciting time for me," he
said.
But what came next was even more
exciting — and much more meaningful.
"Eunice wanted to meet me, and thank
me," said Perlman. "Two weeks later, I
got a call from the Kennedy Foundation,
and I'm in a room with Eunice Kennedy
Shriver and Sargent Shriver.
This isn't
just Steve
Perlman,
health care
hero, but Steve
Perlman, American
hero … or more
simply, Steve Perlman, hero.
We are all grateful.

prevent health problems and provide
referrals for follow-up care. As a result,
according to Special Olympics, the
programs improved the health of athletes
while at the same time training health
workers to treat people with intellectual
disabilities.
They were so successful, Special
Olympics included oral and vision
health programs for athletes in the 1995
World Games in Connecticut. The
results were shocking: 29 percent had
untreated vision problems, 68 percent
had gingivitis, 33 percent had tooth
decay. Fifteen percent of the athletes
were sent immediately to emergency
rooms with acute pain or disease. These
were athletes who were deemed healthy
and fit to compete by their providers at
home.
This appalled Timothy Shriver,
Kennedy Shriver's son, who is
chairman of the Special Olympics
board of directors. And that is when
the Shrivers' committee to end health
care discrimination against people with
intellectual disabilities began taking
shape. Since then, Special Olympics
has delivered 1.7 million free health
screenings to athletes in 130 countries.
This is game-changing for children and
adults who have typically had no access
to health care, or substandard care,
according to a statement by the Special
Olympics board.
Based on his experience, along with
what he learned from the Shrivers,
the Special Olympics Healthy Athlete
program has taken Perlman all around
the world and earned him accolades:
ESPN named him a game-changer in
one of its E-60 specials.
"It is the largest public health
program in the world for people with
intellectual disabilities," Perlman said.
"This is my full-time job now — to
increase access to health care for all such
people."
Shortly after meeting the Shrivers,
Perlman found himself in Alaska at a
U.S. Senate hearing on the matter (it was
located in Alaska, Perlman said, because
that state's Ted Stevens was chairman of
the Health Committee).
"Once I got back from that
conference, I started to get calls from
everywhere in the country wanting me
to work with the American Academy of
Developmental Medicine and Dentistry."
Perlman said he can remember when
intellectually disabled people were still
called "retarded" and that the stigma
followed them everywhere they went,
including doctors visits.
"You'd hear of people with
conditions that would be treated if the
patient weren't disabled, and doctors
would simply refuse to work on them
due to their physical and intellectual
challenges.
"We fight the battles for the parents
who come to us, and who look to us to
get things done to help their children
who have intellectual disabilities."
In 2017, at the Special Olympics
winter games in Austria, Timothy
Shriver honored seven health care
organizations and professionals who are
on the front lines of bringing essential
services to the intellectually disabled.
One of them was Perlman, whom Shriver
called an "American health care hero."
"When (his mother) picked up the
phone and asked for help, you said
yes to Rosemary. Yes to care. Yes to
professionalism. Yes to expertise. Yes to a
woman who deserved the best.
"This isn't just Steve Perlman, health
care hero, but Steve Perlman, American
hero … or more simply, Steve Perlman,
hero. We are all grateful."

Military couple says
'I do'
to Nahant CC offer
Kady Hammons married Joaquin Gonzalez at Nahant Country Club
September 22.
BY BRIDGET TURCOTTE
Love is in the air at the The Nahant
Country Club Estate.
Carrying a bouquet of marsala lilies
and peach peonies, U.S. Air Force veteran
Kady Hammons married Staff Sgt.
Joaquin Gonzalez on the grounds of the
mansion September 22. The couple won
a free wedding in a contest held by the
country club for military couples.
“We didn’t think we’d be able to have
a wedding,” said Hammons, 29. “I knew
if we didn’t win this wedding, we would
have had to go to the courthouse or
something. We have too many kids, and
we have to pay for college and stuff.”
The couple has six daughters together.
Hammons, a North Carolina native,
joined the Air Force in 2010. Four years
later, she and Gonzales, a Texas native,
were stationed in Japan within a week
of each other, but they didn’t cross paths
for 21/2 years.
They met by chance when Hammons
hosted a morale party for her air men
and Gonzalez attended to support one
of his troops. The pair became friends
almost immediately, but lost touch. Years
later, they bumped into each other in a
grocery store, and the rest is history.
“I got out of the Air Force to be with
him — so we could be together,” said
Hammons, who is also a nursing student.
Kady Hammons and Joaquin Gonzalez exchanged vows at Nahant Country Club. The officiant is Jessica Downing. The couple has a blended family with six children.
Daughter Amelia Gonzalez is at left. At right are daughters Juliana Gonzalez holding Piper Gonzalez, Natalia Gonzalez, Avery Gay and Alessandra Gonzalez.

WINTER 2019 | 21
Gonzalez, 34, has three daughters and
Hammons has two. Each has been married
twice before. Together they welcomed
their sixth baby girl six months ago.
“It feels like we’re doing it right this
time,” she said.
The intimate ceremony included
fewer than three dozen guests and was
held outdoors on the grounds of the
mansion.
Nahant Country Club was built
in about 1825 by Frederic Tudor, the
ice king, as a summer cottage. Tudor
made a fortune shipping ice from
New England ponds to warm climates
throughout the globe.
The seven-acre estate has space for
couples to have an indoor or outdoor
ceremony.
“In this line of business, we meet a
lot of military couples,” said Yasmene
Driscoll, owner and operator of the
country club.
Oftentimes, plans change and they
need to reschedule because of their
military obligations, she said.
“They’re just trying to get married
and have one normal, civilian day,” she
said. “There’s not many ways that I can
give back to them, but this I can do. I
can use my tools to give back to them.”

Hot Chocolate bliss
BY BELLA diGRAZIA | PHOTOS BY SPENSER HASAK
The second the first snowfall hits, you will be
dreaming of marshmallows melting in hot
chocolate. You can make that dream a reality with
three simple steps, but don't be afraid to give it a
little twist. S'mores Hot Chocolate is the perfect
beverage to keep you warm in the middle of
a New England winter.
What You Need:
• 1 cup water
• 2 cups whole milk
• ¼ cup cocoa powder
• 2 T light chocolate syrup
• 3 T sugar
• 1 pinch salt
• Crushed graham crackers
• Spoonful of Marshmallow Fluff
• ½ cup marshmallows
• Baking sheet
• Small saucepan
What Your Steps Are:
1. Preheat oven to low broil and move
oven rack to the middle (high enough,
to later broil marshmallows).
2. Heat water and milk in a saucepan
over medium heat until warmed
through (about 5 minutes).
3. Add cocoa powder, chocolate syrup,
sugar, and salt to create hot chocolate.
Whisk vigorously until thoroughly
combined.
4. Line the top of the mug with the
Fluff. Turn the mug upside down, so
the crushed graham crackers stick to
the rim.
5. Pour in hot chocolate and top each
mug with ¼ cup marshmallows. Carefully
set mugs on the baking sheet in the oven,
and broil marshmallows until browned.
6. Carefully remove the baking sheet
and mugs from the oven. Let them sit
for 1 minute to cool.
What You Can Add On:
• Dark chocolate bar
• Chocolate syrup
• Extra graham crackers
• A pinch of cinnamon powder

STEVENS
Along the coast in
this land of the free
Is a feast for the eyes by a
sliver of sea,
With seagulls drifting through the air
Which smells like salt out to Vinnin Square.
Swampscott, your beauty make eyes ignite;
The sun splashes the canvas of morning and night,
Sketching the sky with orange and red,
As the waves’ lullabies put babies to bed.
Your shore is an easel where the hand of time
Paints murals of magic to make each day shine.
Early-morning men in their pre-dawn coats
Head out to the water and the lobster boats.
As the Swampscott children wake up from the dark,
They head out to Hadley or Stanley or Clarke,
Learn some stuff, and when the day is through
They’ll head to the field and root for Big Blue;
And there they might see, in the stands,
The tallest governor in this great land.
Governor Baker calls this town home.
He likes it here, and he’s not alone.
It’s a nice place to walk and smile and breathe;
And its beauty makes Swampscott a tough place to leave.

Jewish Book Month
turns the page on a quarter century
BY BILL BROTHERTON
For 25 years, the JCC of the North
Shore has hosted some of the world's
top authors at its Jewish Book Month
Speaker Series.
Its 2019 silver anniversary year
started off strongly at Tedesco Country
Club Oct. 24, when The New York Times
bestselling author Ben Mizrich read
from his "Bitcoin Billionaires," sharing
the true story of identical twin brothers
Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss and
their big bet on crypto-currency.
The eight-event series concludes with
two dissimilar programs in December.
An Afternoon of Ukuleles, Cartoons
and Conversation with The New Yorker
cartoonist Roz Chast and The New
Yorker humorist/staff writer Patricia
Marx is at Peabody Essex Museum in
Salem on Dec. 1. It is an afternoon filled
with musical parody, amusing anecdotes,
hysterical (if not questionable) stories,
and whimsical visuals.
Then, on Dec. 11, Rebecca Erbelding,
historian at the United States Holocaust
Memorial Museum in Washington,
D.C., pieces together years of research
and newly uncovered archival materials
to tell the dramatic story of America’s
little-known efforts to save the Jews of
Europe. Her book "The Untold Story
of America’s Efforts to Save the Jews of
Europe" has received universal praise.
Izzi Abrams, JCCNS board president
and an early childhood educator who
co-chairs Children’s Services at the
Swampscott Public Library, said Jewish
Book Month began 25 years ago, when
book clubs started sprouting up all over
the North Shore. A group of women
at the Jewish Community Center were
certain a club that discussed books
written by a Jewish author or about
Jewish topics would succeed, she said.
They were correct. Three events were held
that year, all well-attended.
The JCC of the North Shore's Jewish
Book Month Speaker Series is thriving.
Events are held at venues throughout
the North Shore. Its audience continues
to grow and members of other book
groups now reserve entire tables.
The committee that chose the books for this year’s Jewish Book Month Speaker Series at the North Shore
Jewish Community Center in Marblehead include, from left, Sara Ewing, the Adult Program Director, Izzi
Abrams of Salem, Susan Steigman of Marblehead, and Diane Knopf of Swampscott.

"It's a Jewish Community Center
event but it has wider appeal" said
Sara Ewing, JCCNS Adult Program
director. "Everyone is welcome to these
community events."
Diane Knopf, Jewish Book Month
chair, said "In the early days, authors
were local. Somebody would know
somebody."
But each year the roster became
more impressive. Featured authors
have included Lesley Stahl, the CBS
journalist who was born in Lynn and
grew up in Swampscott; Ben Sherwood,
former president of ABC News; Dr.
Ruth Westheimer; Marcia Clark, the lead
prosecuter in the OJ Simpson murder
trial; actor Louis Gossett Jr.; Gary David
Goldberg, writer/producer of TV's
"Family Ties" and "Spin City"; local

newspaper reporters Meredith Goldstein
and Larry Tye; and Pete Hamill, the
New York City journalist and novelist.
Abrams broke bread with Hamill
after a JBM event for his book "Snow."
"I took him out to dinner in Marblehead.
I can't remember where," she said, "but
the conversation was lively."
Abrams also picked up at South
Station Jamie Bernstein, who had
written a book about her dad, music
icon Leonard Bernstein, on the
centennial of his birth, and they stopped
at Kelly's in Revere before the event.
Abrams even pinch hit as featured
speaker when the authors of a book
about illusionist Harry Houdini missed
their train in NYC. "It was a full house,
and I spoke for an hour and a half. It's
a good thing I read the book and like to
talk," she said. "I took a cut," she added,
then laughed.
Last year, Marblehead's Phyllis Karas,
author of "Women of Southie," brought
along three of the book's prominent
women who grew up in South Boston
during Whitey Bulger's reign of terror.
On the very day Bulger died, no less.
It was standing room only at the JCC's
Hillel Library.
The annual Girls Night Out
gatherings, which feature an author or
book that's of special interest to women,
have become must-attend affairs. "The
Girls Night Out events also include
boutiques, shopping, raffles … and
drinking," said Susan Steigman, with a
smile. Steigman, a committee member,
was director of Jewish Book Month at
the JCC from 2001 to 2012.
Ewing and Knopf represented the
Jewish Book Month committee at the
spring conference of the Jewish Book
Council, a NYC-based non-profit and
the longest-run ning orga ni za tion devoted
exclu sive ly to the sup port and cel e-
bra tion of Jew ish literature. Authors got
to make a two-minute pitch to attendees,
and there were work shops on run ning
suc cess ful book events.
"It's speed dating for authors," said
Knopf.
Fol low ing the event, the council
coordinates requests and assists with
sched ul ing.
This year's committee also included
Sylvia Belkin, Margie Detkin, Sara
Foster, Ethel Harris, Helaine Hazlett,
Sheryl Levy, Karen Madorsky, Catherine
Mazur-Jefferies, Patti McWeeney, Ina
Resnikoff, Sharon Rich, Shelley Sackett,
Sara Winer and Jane Zeller.
