"A Cup of Coffee, A Sandwich, and You": Cooking and Cuddling in Popular Songs with Michael Lasser
2:00-4:00 p.m.
Free with Museum Admission

Join us as we welcome Michael Lasser, lecturer, writer, broadcaster, critic, and teacher , who was raised in New Jersey in the shadow of Broadway.  Michael  has been talking about popular music, as a social history and the songs and the America they reflect. Lasser‘s talks are a mix of substance and entertainment, serious purpose and lighthearted irreverence. In connection with our landmark exhibit, Chosen Food, Michael will examine how American popular music has something to tell about ourselves if we stop and listen to it as it opens a revealing and entertaining window on American attitudes for the past 150 years.  RSVP to Ilene Dackman-Alon, 410.732-6400, 214; or email idackmanalon@jewishmuseummd.org
