  • The Impact of Camp Ramah on the Attitudes and Practices Of
    122 Impact: Ramah in the Lives of Campers, Staff, and Alumni MITCHELL CoHEN The Impact of Camp Ramah on the Attitudes and Practices of Conservative Jewish College Students Adapted from the foreword to Research Findings on the Impact of Camp Ramah: A Companion Study to the 2004 “Eight Up” Report, a report for the National Ramah Commission, Inc. of The Jewish Theological Seminary, by Ariela Keysar and Barry A. Kosmin, 2004. The network of Ramah camps throughout North America (now serving over 6,500 campers and over 1,800 university-aged staff members) has been described as the “crown jewel” of the Conservative Movement, the most effec- tive setting for inspiring Jewish identity and commitment to Jewish communal life and Israel. Ismar Schorsch, chancellor emeritus of The Jewish Theological Seminary, wrote: “I am firmly convinced that in terms of social import, in terms of lives affected, Ramah is the most important venture ever undertaken by the Seminary” (“An Emerging Vision of Ramah,” in The Ramah Experience, 1989). Research studies written by Sheldon Dorph in 1976 (“A Model for Jewish Education in America”), Seymour Fox and William Novak in 1997 (“Vision at the Heart: Lessons from Camp Ramah on the Power of Ideas in Shaping Educational Institutions”), and Steven M. Cohen in 1998 (“Camp Ramah and Adult Jewish Identity: Long Term Influences”), and others all credit Ramah as having an incredibly powerful, positive impact on the devel- opment of Jewish identity. Recent Research on the Influence of Ramah on Campers and Staff I am pleased to summarize the findings of recent research on the impact of Ramah camping on the Jewish practices and attitudes of Conservative Jewish youth.

  • Jewish Summer Camping and Civil Rights: How Summer Camps Launched a Transformation in American Jewish Culture
    Jewish Summer Camping and Civil Rights: How Summer Camps Launched a Transformation in American Jewish Culture Riv-Ellen Prell Introduction In the first years of the nineteen fifties, American Jewish families, in unprecedented numbers, experienced the magnetic pull of suburbanization and synagogue membership.1 Synagogues were a force field particularly to attract children, who received not only a religious education to supplement public school, but also a peer culture grounded in youth groups and social activities. The denominations with which both urban and suburban synagogues affiliated sought to intensify that force field in order to attract those children and adolescents to particular visions of an American Judaism. Summer camps, especially Reform and Conservative ones, were a critical component of that field because educators and rabbis viewed them as an experiment in socializing children in an entirely Jewish environment that reflected their values and the denominations‟ approaches to Judaism. Scholars of American Jewish life have produced a small, but growing literature on Jewish summer camping that documents the history of some of these camps, their cultural and aesthetic styles, and the visions of their leaders.2 Less well documented is the socialization that their leaders envisioned. What happened at camp beyond Sabbath observance, crafts, boating, music, and peer culture? The content of the programs and classes that filled the weeks, and for some, the months at camp has not been systematically analyzed. My study of program books and counselor evaluations of two camping movements associated with the very denominations that flowered following 1 World War II has uncovered the summer camps‟ formulations of some of the interesting dilemmas of a post-war American Jewish culture.

    AMY LEMISCH Executive Director California Film Commission As Executive Director of the California Film Commission, Amy Lemisch oversees all of the state's efforts to facilitate motion picture, television and commercial production. She was appointed by Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger in May 2004, and continues to serve for Governor Edmund G. Brown Jr. Under her leadership, the Commission coordinates with all levels of state and local government to promote California as a production locale. Such efforts in-turn create jobs, increase production spending and generate tax revenues. In addition to overseeing the Commission's wide range of support services, Ms. Lemisch also serves as the state's leading advocate for educating legislators, production industry decision makers and the public at large about the value of filming in California. Among her many accomplishments, Ms. Lemisch was instrumental in the creation, passage and implementation of the California Film & Television Tax Credit Program, which was enacted in 2009 to help curb runaway production. The Commission is charged with administering the $500 million program that targets the types of productions most likely to leave California due to incentives offered in other states and countries. Prior to her appointment at the Commission, Ms. Lemisch served for more than 15 years as a producer for Penny Marshall’s company - Parkway Productions. While based at Universal Studios and Sony Pictures, she was responsible for overseeing physical production on all Parkway projects, as well as selecting new projects for the company to produce. Her credits include: producer on the independent feature film WITH FRIENDS LIKE THESE; co-producer on RIDING IN CARS WITH BOYS (starring Drew Barrymore), THE PREACHER’S WIFE (starring Denzel Washington and Whitney Houston) and RENAISSANCE MAN (starring Danny DeVito); associate producer on AWAKENINGS, A LEAGUE OF THEIR OWN, and CALENDAR GIRL.

  • Musical Instruments and Recorded Music As Part of Shabbat and Festival Worship
    Musical Instruments and Recorded Music as Part of Shabbat and Festival Worship Rabbis Elie Kaplan Spitz and Elliot N. Dorff Voting Draft - 2010. She’alah: May we play musical instruments or use recorded music on Shabbat and hagim as part of synagogue worship? If yes, what are the limitations regarding the following: 1. Repairing a broken string or reed 2. Tuning string or wind instruments 3. Playing electrical instruments and using prerecorded music 4. Carrying the instrument 5. Blowing the shofar 6. Qualifications and pay of musicians I. Introduction The use of musical instruments as an accompaniment to services on Shabbat and sacred holidays (yom tov) is increasing among Conservative synagogues. During a recent United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism’s biennial conference, a Shabbat worship service included singing the traditional morning prayers with musician accompaniment on guitar and electronic keyboard.1 Previously, a United Synagogue magazine article profiled a synagogue as a model of success that used musical instruments to enliven its Shabbat services.2 The matter-of-fact presentation written by its spiritual leader did not suggest any tension between the use of musical instruments and halakhic norms. While as a movement we have approved the use of some instruments on Shabbat, such as the organ, we remain in need of guidelines to preserve the sanctity of the holy days. Until now, the CJLS (Committee of Jewish Law and Standards) has not analyzed halakhic questions that relate to string and wind instruments, such as 1 See “Synagogues Become Rock Venues: Congregations Using Music to Revitalize Membership Rolls,” by Rebecca Spence, Forward, January 4, 2008, A3.

  • Garry E Penny Marshall E Il Mito “Abruzzese”
    | 1 GARRY E PENNY MARSHALL E IL MITO “ABRUZZESE” DI HAPPY DAYS di Piercesare Stagni* L’AQUILA – Chi mai potrebbe pensare che tra la mitica e americanissima serie tv Happy Days e l’Abruzzo esiste un legame? Eppure, incredibile ma vero, è proprio così, perché questi celebri telefilm, imperniati sulle vicende della simpatica famiglia Cunningham di Milwaukee e sulle gesta dell’invincibile Fonzie, furono creati da Garry Marshall, regista, attore e produttore originario di San Martino sulla Marrucina, in provincia di Chieti. E sorprendentemente i collegamenti tra la famosissima serie e la nostra regione non si esauriscono qui, perché anche la sorella di Marshall, Penny, recitò in Happy Days nel ruolo della simpatica operaia italoamericana Laverne De Fazio: addirittura, insieme all’inseparabile www.virtuquotidiane.it | 2 Shirley, interpretata da Cindy Williams, divenne protagonista di una serie tutta loro, Laverne & Shirley appunto. Si trattava di uno spin-off, di una nuova sit-com derivata dalla principale, da Happy Days, che in Italia circolò solo in alcune televisioni private dei primi anni ‘80 ma che spopolò negli Stati Uniti, a tal punto da battere negli ascolti anche le vicende di Richie Cunningham e dei suoi amici: un successo talmente grande da far nascere anche una versione a cartoni animati delle vicende delle due simpatiche e spregiudicate ragazze, Laverne e Shirley nell’esercito. www.virtuquotidiane.it | 3 Il cognome di Penny e Garry Marshall in origine era Masciarelli, ma il padre, Anthony, decise di cambiarlo alla nascita del figlio maschio, probabilmente per farlo crescere senza le discriminazioni a cui gli italiani e le altre minoranze etniche erano purtroppo frequentemente esposte: forse è stato proprio il cambio di cognome a non renderli noti come avrebbero meritato in Italia, ma in realtà le carriere dei due artisti sono state eccezionali, purtroppo accomunate anche dalla relativa triste vicinanza della loro morte, nel 2016 per Garry e solo pochi giorni fa, il 17 dicembre 2018, per Penny.
