W. Michael Blumenthal, From Exile to Washington
LBI joins the German Consulate General in New York and Germany Close Up in presenting a talk by W. Michael Blumenthal. In a life that has spanned nearly nine decades and has taken him across the world and back, W. Michael Blumenthal has borne witness to the world’s convulsions and transformations during the twentieth century. Born in Germany between the two world wars, Blumenthal narrowly escaped the Nazi horror, when, in 1939, he and his family fled to Shanghai’s chaotic Jewish ghetto, where they spent the entirety of the Second World War.
From these fraught and humble beginnings, Blumenthal would emerge as a major leader in American business and politics. In the second half of the century, Blumenthal headed two major American corporations—Bendix and Burroughs (later Unisys); served as a United States trade ambassador in the State Department and the White House, advising John F. Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson; and served under Jimmy Carter as the Secretary of the Treasury. After his retirement from business and politics, he began an entirely new chapter in his career, when he conceived and served as the director of Europe’s largest Jewish museum—the Jewish Museum of Berlin—a position he still holds today.
An essential autobiography by one of America’s great political figures, From Exile to Washington is an engaging chronicle of the twentieth century’s greatest upheavals, and a tribute to a lifetime of courage, leadership and decisiveness.

Performing Captivity, Performing Escape: Cabarets and Plays from the Terezín / Theresienstadt Ghetto
Plays first performed in the bleak surroundings of a Jewish concentration camp and ghetto over 60 years ago are to be staged again for modern-day audiences in New York, thanks to literary detective work by a UK-based academic from the University of York.
Performing Captivity, Performing Escape: Cabarets and Plays from the Terezin/Theresienstadt Ghetto (Seagull Books 2013) is a collection of twelve theatrical texts including cabaret songs, sketches, historical and verse dramas and puppet plays. The scripts were written and performed by Czech and Austrian Jews imprisoned at Terezín, also known as Theresienstadt, one of the sites of Hitler’s “Final Solution.”
The previously unknown scripts were discovered by Dr Lisa Peschel, a lecturer in the University of York’s Department of Theatre, Film and Television, during interviews with survivors of the Terezín camp and ghetto near Prague.
At the book launch, Edward Einhorn, Artistic Director of Untitled Theater Company #61 (presenter of the Jewish Theater Festival and the Vaclav Havel Festival) will direct five actors in a staged reading of scenes and songs from the scripts. Dr Peschel will outline how the plays came to light and their role in helping the prisoners deal with life in the ghetto.
Leo Baeck Institute is proud to host this event paying tribute to the cultural life that the Jewish residents of Theresienstadt struggled to maintain under oppressive conditions. LBI’s namesake, Rabbi Leo Baeck, was also a part of this effort. The last official leader of Germany’s beleaguered Jewish community, Baeck refused multiple offers that would have allowed him to emigrate and was deported at the age of 70 to Theresienstadt, where he continued to teach, holding lectures on philosophy and religion.

An Archive of My Own
An Archive of My Own is the product of a research project in Georgian Jewish History, which artist Nino Biniashvili conducted during her Prins Foundation Fellowship for Emigrating Artists and Writers-in-Residence at the Center for Jewish History.
For An Archive of My Own Biniashvili creates, following Virginia Woolf, a personal study: a room of her own. A wooden table, a chair, a lamp, and an indoor plant form a homelike atmosphere. On the table, a large picture book and an essay await the visitor. The picture book includes screen-prints inspired by the archival material Biniashvili reviewed during her research. Drawings hang on the walls and next to them slides are projected. The slides portray Jewish life and sites in nineteen seventies Georgia, USSR.
Visitors are welcome to sit at the table, touch the prints, turn the pages and read the essay as if they were looking through their old albums and readings their personal memoirs. Employing this form of presentation, Biniashvili breaks from a long tradition of displaying archival material in strict, glass cases. By thus defying common notions of archive and research, Biniashvili attempts to sustain the point of view of an artist in her historical investigation as well as to acknowledge and address her own history as a Georgian Jew who grew up during the last years of the Soviet Union.
Nino Biniashvili (b. Tbilisi, Georgia, 1980) is a visual artist. In her work, Biniashvili represents and analyzes the possibilities and problems of communication between cultures and people. She attempts to articulate the experience of living in a permanent state of otherness, the experience of lacking a homeland.

archival leaders advocate: annual seminar at the center
http://archivalleaders.cjh.org/
The Role of Archives in Supporting Changing Research Practices
The annual event, Archival Leaders Advocate, features prominent figures in the archives field addressing issues of broad relevance to all archivists. This year’s panel discussion, “The Role of Archives in Supporting Changing Research Practices,” is cosponsored by the Metropolitan New York Library Council and the Archivists Round Table of Metropolitan New York.
Ithaka S+R's recent report, "Supporting the Changing Research Practices of Historians,” offers an insightful examination of how, as the executive summary states, "underlying research methods of many historians remain fairly recognizable... but the day to day research practices of all historians have changed fundamentally." The report includes a broad examination of the crucial role of archives and libraries in providing access to historical materials and details how changing methods of research and expectations of access among researchers are creating new challenges and opportunities for the archivists and librarians supporting historical research. The report also features a number of specific recommendations for libraries and archives as they continue to provide access to materials in an era of new record types, access technologies, and research practices.
This panel discussed the report's findings from the specific perspective of its implications for archives and as a jumping off point for discussing reference and access services in light of increasingly digitized and born-digital collections. Panelists included Roger Schonfeld, a co-author of the report and Program Director for Libraries, Users, and Scholarly Practices at Ithaka S+R; Kate Theimer, a writer and blogger on archives at ArchivesNext; David Ludden, an interview participant in the Ithaka report and Professor of History at New York University; and Melanie Meyers, Senior Reference Services Librarian for Special Collections at the Center for Jewish History. Jefferson Bailey, Strategic Initiatives Manager at the Metropolitan New York Library Council, moderated.
