From the Archives: The Naomi Prawer Kadar Annual Memorial Lecture With Jonathan D. Sarna

In 2019, the Institute welcomed Jonathan D. Sarna to share his research on Cora Wilburn, the first Jewish novelist in America. The sold-out event included students, faculty, and members of the public. The lecture was presented in partnership with the Naomi Foundation, whose work is to advance the teaching and learning of Yiddish, particularly in academic and scholarly settings. Nadav Kadar and Prof. Jeremy Dauber delivered introductory remarks.
