From Nov ’10 Spotlight: Chicago North Shore Section of the National Council of Jewish Women began the new year on Oct. 4 with the wonderful presentation “Barbra Streisand: One Funny Girl!” at Lakeside Congregation in Highland Park.
Speakers Jane Atlas and Joyce Grant used numerous film clips to show Streisand’s career arc in the context of American Jewish comedy: self-deprecating, hyper-verbal, and always on the progressive edge of sweeping social change.
