Cal Poly Arts and the JCC collaborated with local filmmaker Todd Peterson and JCC Manager Bobby Naimark to film an exclusive interview with 102-year-old actor, painter, and author Nehemiah Persoff about his new book, The Many Faces of Nehemiah that includes stories related to Fiddler and Sholem Aleichem's other tales. It was wonderful to learn more about Nehemiah's life, acting career, and his love for Israel. The engaging video is full of antidotes, life lessons, and moments we will cherish forever with a living legend of the arts.
