The Jewish Broadcasting Service (JBS) production of the Brooklyn Jewish Historical Initiative's (BJHI) 3rd Annual Induction Ceremony honors Judith Clurman, David Dubrow, Merle Feld, Ira Glasser, Malcolm Hoenlein, Rabbi Simon Jacobson, Eli Miller, Judge Judy Sheindlin, Norman Siegel, and Assembly Member Helene Weinstein.
“BJHI was created to tell the
extraordinary story of the Jewish community of Brooklyn, so the world
would know’ said Howard Teich, BJHI Founder and Co-chair. "The BJHI Brooklyn Jewish Hall of Fame will recognize the leading
Brooklynites who have truly made a difference in the world, and there
are many.”
“We wanted to be sure that the first
class had a representative balance,” said Sarina Roffé, BJHI Co-chair. “So we have someone from the Russian community, the Syrian community,
etc., as well as business leaders, social activists and entertainers.”
The broadcast dates and times are as follows: May 30 - 7:30 p.m. and 1 a.m. (4:30 p.m. and 10 p.m. PT); June 1 - 1:30 p.m. (10:30 a.m. PT); June 2 - 7:30 p.m. and 1:30 a.m. (4:30 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. PT)
