This is an online Zoom event.
Join us on February 6 at 2 pm with Author Dan Grunfeld, a former professional basketball player and a proud graduate of Stanford University as he discusses his book By the Grace of the Game: The Holocaust, a Basketball Legacy, and an Unprecedented American Dream, which details what his family endured during the Holocaust, how basketball transformed his father, Ernie Grunfeld, from an immigrant outcast to an Olympic gold medalist for the United States and an NBA player for the Milwaukee Bucks.
The story traverses the spectrum of the human experience to detail how perseverance, love, and legacy can survive through generations, carried on the shoulders of a simple and beautiful game.
This program is hosted by the Nathan and Esther Pelz Holocaust Education Resource Center, a program of the Milwaukee Jewish Federation in partnership with the Milwaukee Bucks. Generously sponsored by: Kari and Michael Altman
