Thanks to videographer Tim Bolger, you can now enjoy excerpts from our 2010 Chicago WITASWAN program (held in conjunction with celebrations of the 3rd annual International SWAN Day).

Meet our special guests Eileen Douglas & Ron Steinman.  Eileen introduces their film My Grandfather’s House in Part One.  Then Eileen & Ron do a Q&A together (after the screening) in Part Two.

I’m the one in the red sweater (in the MC role).  And Leslie Newcorn provides the beautiful voice singing “Birds are Drowsing” (in Yiddish) at the beginning and “I Believe” (in Hebrew) at the end.
