#24 - Growing up Franklin, My Jewish Roots
In this episode, I explore my Jewish roots, tracing all the way back to New York City in 1959. I am also proud to introduce “America’s Next Top Optician”. At least once a week, I pretend that Benjamin Franklin was my dad. Now you get to hear how that works...it works for me.
Produced by Katie Covett
Music: Mike Shapiro, Billy Novick, and Guy Van Duser
Special Thanks to Dana Friedman, Lisa Geduldig, Opticians Felix, Mike, Tom, and Julia, Park Avenue Synagogue
