Rifka Takes a Bow

Betty Rosenberg Perlov, 96, grew up in the Yiddish Theater, where her mother was an actress and her father a writer and producer. Always artistic, she was a 'child star' on her father's weekly Yiddish radio soap opera. She grew up, married, and went to college late in in life, obtaining a Master's Degree. She has always worked hard to share her artistic vision; this book is her triumph. She lives in the Park Slope section of Brooklyn, New York.
