A Trove of Zohars, with author Lawrence Weschsler and photographer Stephen Berkman

An antic tale of investigative perplexities and vertiginous inquiry results when author Lawrence Weschler tracks down Stephen Berkman, the wet-collodion devotee who claims to have discovered a trove of work by Shimmel Zohar, a 19th-century photographer who chronicled the Jewish immigrant community of the Lower East Side.

Presented (in-person only) by and at Mechanics Institute. Co-presented by KlezCalifornia.
