Presentations

I regularly speak on panels as well as lecture. My subjects relate to my scholarship: on New York City Jews, on religious change among American Jews, on the Jewish experience in the American military during World War II, on Jewish photographers. Here is a small sampling of recorded lectures and panels available on youtube.
