The Jewish Lives Podcast - En podcast af Jewish Lives

Everything about Sarah Bernhardt is fascinating, from her obscure birth to her glorious career to her highly public romantic life and her indomitable spirit. Robert Gottlieb, author of the Jewish Lives biography Sarah: The Life of Sarah Bernhardt tracks the trajectory through which an illegitimate—and scandalous—daughter of a courtesan transformed herself into the most famous actress who ever lived, and into a national icon, a symbol of France. Music in this episode: Erik Satie performed by Michael Rettig (Klavier) und Miran Zrimsek (Cello) - Gnossienne No. 1 (Klavier, Cello)
