New York, as we know and love it, acquired its recognizable image of a city of skyscrapers only in the thirties of the last century, when it experienced an urban development boom. The construction of the UN headquarters after World War II gave New York political weight - the city became the "capital of the world": the financial, commercial and cultural center of the USA and the entire planet. The crazy pace of life, street fashionistas and office clerks, multi-story offices and world-famous museums, an atmosphere of freedom and a colorful color make New York a place you definitely want to visit and stay. Journalist and TV presenter Vladimir Pozner will tell you about what one of the most beautiful cities on Earth was like in the last century. About the lecturer: Vladimir Pozner is a journalist, TV presenter, writer, winner of the TEFI award and the Union of Journalists of the USSR. He lived and worked in the USA, where he hosted his own program Final edition ("Results of the week"). More information about the event on our website: https://www.jewish-museum.ru/events/n...
