| Soviet-Jewish Experience in NYC, 1972-2000 in Fact and Fiction
February 16, 2012, 6:30 p.m.
Martin E. Segal Theater
Every immigrant has a story. For Russian immigrants in New York, such stories reveal the history, politics, and passion for storytelling of the Russian people. Please join us for a panel discussion of the Soviet Jewish immigrant experience from 1972 to 2000, with readings by authors whose essays and novels were inspired by that experience. Panel members include Russian emigre writers Anya Ulinich, Lina Zeldovixh, Mikhail Iossel and American authors Emily Rubin and Annelise Orleck of Dartmouth University. Book signings to follow.
