On August 22, 2012 German filmmaker and VJPL supporter Andrea Oberheiden became my wife in South Carolina.
We only got to know each other because of my work for the VJPL. Andrea has created several documentaries about the Jewish American entertainer Al Jolson whose films and music are now part of the library's collection (thanks to Andrea and to the International Al Jolson Society). Andrea along with her film partner Jens Reinke, both busy with their graduate studies, have organized several donations for the VJPL from England, Germany, Austria, Australia, and the USA and brought the material over for the library opening in December of 2011.
