Details | Dan Grunfeld, once a basketball standout himself at Stanford University, shares the remarkable story of his family, a delicately interwoven narrative that doesn't lack in heartbreak yet remains as deeply nourishing as his grandmother's Hungarian cooking. The true improbability of the saga lies in the discovery of a game that unknowingly held the power to heal wounds, build bridges, and tie together a fractured Jewish family. From the grips of the Nazis to the top of the Olympic podium, from the cheap seats to center stage at Madison Square Garden, from yellow stars to silver spoons, this story navigates the spectrum of the human experience to detail how perseverance, love, and legacy can survive through generations. Ernie Grunfeld, Dan’s father, escaped to America and went on to reach unimaginable heights as an NBA player and executive. Admission is free and open to the public.
