Video Oral Histories Highlight YIVO History and Yiddish Culture
Dec 20, 2013
Two of the over 300 Wexler Oral History videos recorded at the Yiddish Book Center over the past few years document the lives of people we have recently commemorated in Yedies.
- Beyle Schaechter-Gottesman (1920-2013)
- Chana Mlotek (1922-2013)
Two interviews also explore the history of YIVO:
- Professor Cecile Kuznitz, author of a forthcoming book on YIVO’s early history in Vilna
- Dr. Arnold Richards, longtime member of YIVO’s Board of Directors
