The Yiddish Voice will begin a series of interviews with activists on the
Yiddish scene around the Paris Yiddish Center-Medem Library starting

Turner. All interviews will air in the coming weeks on the Yiddish Voice
radio show in Boston on WUNR 1600-AM Wednesdays at 7:30 PM and
live-streamed via yv.org.

Ri J. Turner is a translator and Yiddish language teacher at the Paris
Yiddish Center-Medem Library, as well as an MA candidate in Yiddish Studies
at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. She is a three-time alumna of the
Uriel Weinreich Summer Program at YIVO in New York, and was a Translation

Interviews in the series will continue in following weeks with Yitskhok
Niborski and Gilles Rozier, with announcements to follow.

The interviews are conducted by Sholem Beinfeld, He is Professor Emeritus
of History at Washington University in St. Louis, and is perhaps best known
as Co-Editor-in-Chief of the Comprehensive Yiddish-English Dictionary

texts and creator of new subtitles for classic Yiddish movies. The
Dictionary is based on the Yiddish-French Dictionary edited by Yitskhok
Niborski and published by the Medem Library/Paris Yiddish Center. Sholem's
connection with the Medem Library goes back many decades, beginning with
his Fulbright Fellowship in Paris as a graduate student.
