When Barbra Gabbed With Golda
Many of you know that the Forward is privileged to have on staff an archivist of otherworldly talent named Chana Pollack, who has a bloodhound’s ability to find historical treasures. What you might not know, however, is that her mother has some talent in this area as well. Check out this clip of Barbra Streisand talking to Golda Meir over videophone at a concert, courtesy of Phyllis Pollack.
I’m personally matching all gifts to the Forward, up to $36,000. Can I match your gift now?
Hello, fellow Forward reader! I’m Joel Brown, a Forward reader and supporter for more than 15 years, and currently the chair of the board of directors.
I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.
The Forward is committed to bringing you unbiased, nuanced Jewish news. From my position as board chair, I see an exciting future as we expand our position as the definitive independent voice of contemporary American Judaism.
— Joel Brown, Forward board chair
