Jeffrey Rosen, President and CEO, National Constitution Center and Professor of Law at The George Washington University Law School, appears as Louis Brandeis, the first Jewish Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, in an unusual evening of conversation with Jens Hoffmann, Director of Special Exhibitions and Public Programs inspired by Andy Warhol’s Ten Portraits of Jews of the Twentieth Century (1980). 
 
About Wish You Were Here
Over a period of three years, Jens Hoffmann, Director of Special Exhibitions and Public Programs, has been interviewing the subjects of Andy Warhol's Ten Portraits of Jews of the Twentieth Century in the Jewish Museum collection, interpreted by prominent experts, as if each were coming to the Museum to have a conversation in the present day. Watch the complete video archive of past programs in the series on YouTube.

This program has been funded by a donation from Lorraine and Martin Beitler who gifted Andy Warhol’s Ten Portraits of Jews of the Twentieth Century to the Jewish Museum in 2006.
