This Moment in Time: A Panel on Anti-Semitism and Publishing with Barbara Josselsohn and Fredric Price (Thu. 16 Jan, 2025 10:00 am - 11:15 am)

This is a tough moment for Jewish writers and some in the publishing industry are uneasy about Jewish-themed books and articles. This climate is troubling not just for writers but for readers as well.

On Thursday January 16 at 10 am, join novelist Barbara Josselsohn, author and publisher Fredric Price, and a panel of Jewish writers for a thoughtful discussion about what is happening and where things go from here at Scarsdale Library. A Q&A will follow the talk.

Fredric Price – who grew up and still lives in Westchester -- is the founder, publisher, and editor of Fig Tree Books LLC, which is dedicated to publishing the best literature of the American Jewish experience. He is also the award-winning novelist of My Mother’s Son and Jacobo’s Rainbow, writing under the pseudonym David Hirshberg.

Barbara Josselsohn is the best-selling author of eight novels, including the recently published The Forgotten Italian Restaurant, a sweeping, multi-generational story of the Resistance in northern Italy during World War 2. She teaches fiction writing at The Writing Institute at Sarah Lawrence and Westport Writers Workshop, and also leads the Writers Center at Scarsdale Library.
