YU Library Book Talk | Marty Glickman: The Life of an American Jewish Sports Legend Online
For nearly half a century after World War II, Marty Glickman was the voice of New York sports. To this day, many fans who grew up listening to his coverage of the Knicks and the Giants can recite the actions in the arenas. Author Prof. Jeffrey S. Gurock, in conversation with Prof. David Shatz, will discuss the complexities faced by his generation, children of immigrants, who emerged from their ethnic cocoons to advance professionally and socially in mainstream America.
Jeffrey Gurock is the Libby M. Klaperman Professor of Jewish History at Bernard Revel Graduate School of Jewish Studies. David Shatz is the Ronald P. Stanton University Professor of Philosophy, Ethics, and Religious Thought.
