From a Vietnam War baby desperate to find the American father she last saw 40 years ago to the military chaplain who helped a stranger through the trauma of 9/11, from a Japanese-American girl interned in 1942 who never forgot the classmate who helped her during her darkest hours to civil rights workers whose lives were forever changed by the deep relationships they formed in the 1960s South, WE'LL MEET AGAIN brings together people whose lives intersected during some of our most turbulent times. With stories of courage, hope, survival and love, WE’LL MEET AGAIN reveals the powerful bonds forged among people who now, against the odds, have the opportunity to reunite with those who transformed their lives. • Ann Curry, executive producer and reporter • Justine Kershaw, executive producer • Reiko Nagumo, film participant • Mary W.

Early writings from Linklater’s journals and telling interviews with the subject himself are intermingled with clips from some of his most beloved films, including Slacker, Dazed and Confused and Boyhood, revealing the extent to which his filmmaking existed (and continues to exist) decidedly outside of the production power bases of Hollywood and New York. • Richard Linklater, filmmaker, via satellite (Boyhood, Before Sunrise, Before Sunset, Before Midnight, Dazed and Confused) • Louis Black, co-director and co-producer • Karen Bernstein, co-director and co-producer • Michael Kantor, series executive producer Premieres Friday, September 1, 9:00 pm ET.

    PROGRAMS & EXHIBITIONS Winter/Spring 2020 To purchase tickets by phone call (212) 485-9268 letter | exhibitions | calendar | programs | family | membership | general information Dear Friends, Until recently, American democracy wasn’t up for debate—it was simply fundamental to our way of life. But things have changed, don’t you agree? According to a recent survey, less than a third of Americans born after 1980 consider it essential to live in a democracy. Here at New-York Historical, our outlook is nonpartisan Buck Ennis, Crain’s New York Business and our audiences represent the entire political spectrum. But there is one thing we all agree on: living in a democracy is essential indeed. The exhibitions and public programs you find in the following pages bear witness to this view, speaking to the importance of our democratic principles and the American institutions that carry them out. A spectacular new exhibition on the history of women’s suffrage in our Joyce B. Cowin Women’s History Gallery this spring sheds new light on the movements that led to the ratification of the 19th Amendment to the Constitution 100 years ago; a major exhibition on Bill Graham, a refugee from Nazi Germany who brought us the Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, Jimi Hendrix, and many other staples of rock & roll, stresses our proud democratic tradition of welcoming immigrants and refugees; and, as part of a unique New-York Historical–Asia Society collaboration during Asia Society’s inaugural Triennial, an exhibition of extraordinary works from both institutions will be accompanied by a new site-specific performance by drummer/composer Susie Ibarra in our Patricia D.

    In this Issue... Early Childhood Party School Board Members VISIONS Recognized VISIONS Volunteering WINTER 2013 ACTS OF KINDNESS Superintendent’S CORNER Wayne Petroelje What an Act of Kindness Can Do A couple my wife and I know chose to share their home with a man who was homeless with a lot of debt. Living with them allowed him time to pay off these debts and again find a place to live for himself. I know they felt privileged to be able to do this for him and this gesture brought the family much joy. Likewise, our daughter and son-in-law committed to a year of feeding several homeless individuals. So, along with their two young boys, they packed lunches at least every two weeks each month and distributed the lunches to these homeless individuals. This was a way of giving back for all they have (even though they have a tight budget themselves). So much of life needs to be about others, not just ourselves. We feel COMING FROM THE HEART a high and are energized by these acts and want to continue to provide acts of kindness.
