Join the Center for Jewish History for a special conversation with&nbsp;Michael Moritz, celebrated investor, philanthropist, and author of the newly released memoir&nbsp;Ausländer: One Family’s Story of Escape and Exile.
When sorting through family papers after his mother's death, Moritz uncovered the stories of relatives murdered during the Holocaust and embarked on a journey to understand the legacy of displacement that shaped his family for generations. In&nbsp;Ausländer, he traces his parents' escape from Nazi Germany, their lives as refugees in Britain, and his own enduring sense of being an outsider, even after achieving extraordinary success in Silicon Valley.
Moritz will be in conversation with&nbsp;Meredith Kopit Levien, President and Chief Executive Officer of The New York Times Company, for a discussion about family, memory, identity, and the lessons history continues to hold for our present moment.
At once a poignant family history and a powerful reflection on identity, belonging, and the fragility of democracy,&nbsp;Ausländer&nbsp;speaks to some of the most pressing questions of our time. Praised by critics as "brilliant" (The Economist) and "a triumph" (Jewish Chronicle), the book offers a deeply moving exploration of memory, exile, and resilience.
Don't miss this opportunity to hear Michael Moritz discuss his family's remarkable story, the process of uncovering the past, and why the lessons of history remain so relevant today.
About Michael Moritz Michael Moritz was born in Cardiff, Wales, in 1954. A former&nbsp;TIME&nbsp;journalist and regular contributor to the&nbsp;FT, he is the author of several books, including&nbsp;The Little Kingdom, the story of Apple's years as a private business. He was a partner in Sequoia Capital for thirty-five years and led the business between 1995 and 2012, becoming one of the most successful investors of his generation. Together with his wife, the author Harriet Heyman, he formed Crankstart in 2001—a San Francisco-based foundation devoted to helping those who might otherwise be left behind.
About Meredith Kopit Levien Meredith&nbsp;Kopit Levien is President and CEO of The New York Times Company. A driving force behind the company’s essential subscription strategy, she has steered&nbsp;The Times&nbsp;into a thriving digital business that fuels the curiosity and passions of a global audience.
Discounted books will be available for purchase from Ruth's Bookstore with registration.
Ticket Info: Free; registration required. Donations are welcome.

“EVERY STREET HAS A STORY”
Artist Reception: Saturday, September 12 3-6 pm
September 8 – October 3, 2026
Gallery Hours: Tuesday–Saturday 12-6 pm or by appointment
Every street has a story.
Walking the City, I seem drawn to certain streets. Each street has a past. Memories. A history. Its own history commingling with my history to the street. I return to favorite streets where I somehow feel at home. A street can anchor you, place you, remind you, make you feel. It can speak to you. Every street has a soul.
There is a mood to a street. The sky, the weather interacting with a street, an emotional dance, an unveiling. Sometimes dramatic, but often quiet and subtle, the streets I paint demand I notice them.
I feel this way about New York City more than any other place. The curve of that street, the remembered buildings still standing to mark my own history to them. Within my paintings there is often a glimpse of my husband Joe, as he has wandered most of these streets with me over the years.
These streets I paint in oil will never look quite the same way again. I am recording a history, a passing moment in time with every street. A very personal journey with NYC. My story is here.
Ellen Bradshaw’s work was influenced by the realism of the Ashcan painters, as well as the sense of color and atmosphere explored by the Impressionists. Ellen's usual subject is New York City. "I'm drawn to the common everydayness of life in the city, and perhaps what is hidden just beneath the surface of the ordinary. The reflective moody quirky streets of Lower Manhattan are my usual subjects - the neighborhoods, the personalities of her buildings, the majesty of her bridges, the streets transformed by snow or the colors of night, the lone figures of daily routine, the everyday intensity of the simple passing of moments against that in-your-face reality that is New York City.”
Ellen has shown in numerous solo and group exhibitions and is the recipient of several awards. She has been President of Pleiades Gallery since 2000.
