A pair of ruby red slippers. A medieval manuscript. A Yiddish folk medicine prescription. These and 97 other objects comprise a new centennial coffee-table-book, 100 Objects from the Collections of the YIVO Institute for Jewish Research, which chronicles modern Jewish history through 100 objects from the YIVO Archives and Library. This gorgeously illustrated book highlights unique manuscripts, photographs, objects, and other ephemera with accompanying essays by 57 leading scholars. Join the book’s editor, YIVO’s Director of Collections Stefanie Halpern, YIVO Executive Director Jonathan Brent, and YIVO Senior Academic Advisor and Director of Exhibitions Eddy Portnoy for a discussion moderated by Rabbi David Ingber that highlights how this book traces YIVO’s role in documenting key moments in modern Jewish history and culture through its 100 years of collecting.
