"Entertaining Americabrings together in a single volume, as does no other existing work, not only a wide range of questions about the role of Jews in the American entertainment media but valuable new insights and perspectives on both familiar and little-known aspects of its central theme. It is itself entertaining as well as informative. Accessible, well written, always sound and often original in scholarship, it will reach a wide readership beyond those who attend the exhibition, and will certainly be useful in courses that explore the role of Jews in popular culture and entertainment."--Robert Sklar, author ofA World History of FilmHoberman, J. is the author of 'Entertaining America Jews, Movies, and Broadcasting', published 2003 under ISBN 9780691113029 and ISBN 0691113025.
