Panel Discussion at Beit Terezin Museum in Israel

8/20/2020

0 Comments

 
I'm excited to be participating in my first Zoom panel discussion about the making of the film "The Tattooed Torah"
Please join us to learn about the movie that I illustrated.

www.tattooedtorah.com

Tuesday, August 25 1pm EST,  8pm Israel Time

Lecture in ENGLISH
During the Nazi regime in Czechoslovakia, many items of Judaica were confiscated from Jewish communities that had been expelled. These artifacts, including Torah Scrolls,were brought to Prague and each one was given a number. During the Communist regime, the Torah Scrolls were dispersed among Jewish Communities around the world. One of the scrolls that emanated from Brno, reached Chicago, in the U.S. Marvell Ginsburg wrote a children's book about the scroll, and later an animated film was made, dubbed by Ed Asner.
 
Speaker: Beth Kopin, daughter of Marvell Ginsburg and producer of the film, and others from the production team.

While trying to free up some space for a project I'm working on, I found this test drawing of a graphic novel I never finished writing. It brings back memories (also nightmares).

Hope everyone is staying healthy and safe.

Nice to hear that the Spanish version of  The Tattooed Torah,

LA PEQUEÑA TORÁ TATUADA, has been accepted to its first festival
the Baja California International Film Festival
in Tijuana, Mexico.

Also working on a new book. (A sample below.) Lots of work. Exhausting but fun.
