Hybrid Event
Photojournalist B.A. Van Sise, “Invited to Life”
January 14, 2024 • 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm
Hybrid Event
Free – $65
Award-winning photojournalist B.A. Van Sise presents his book “Invited to Life: Finding Hope After the Holocaust,” featuring 90 portraits of Holocaust survivors whose ambition and gratitude–for turning devastating beginnings into a life remade–take center stage. Some are familiar names who have made notable careers, while others are bakers, tailors, rabbis, social workers, doctors, and accountants.
What began five years ago as an article for a local newspaper became a year-long exhibit at the Museum of Jewish Heritage in New York City and a reflection on resilience during challenging pandemic times, testifying to the strength and endurance of the human spirit.
Moderated by Dee Simon, CEO Holocaust Center for Humanity
Part of the Chew on This Speaker Series. In partnership with Jewish Book Council.
