Congregation Emanu-El invites you to join us this coming Monday, March 23 at 6:30 pm for "When Grandma was a "Wild Young Thing", the next event in the Library-Museum Lecture Series. Lily Koppel will speak about her book, The Red Leather Diary: Reclaiming a Life Through the Pages of a Lost Journal. Koppel unveils the vivid and dynamic life of a young woman growing up in Manhattan in the 1930s. The diary's author, Florence Wolfson, the daughter of Russian Jewish immigrants, belonged to Temple Emanu-El's Junior Society, the precursor of today's Saviv group for young adults. Koppel set out to find the writer of this remarkable journal who wrote in her journal about her romances, horseback riding in Central park, summer excursions to the Catskills, and an obsession with a famous avant-garde actress.
