Yale Strom '76 is also out with another book. I assume he wrote it in his spare time (see below). The Autobiography of the Offenbacher traces the life of a storied violin as it witnesses the history of Central and Eastern European Jewry from the late eighteenth to the late twentieth century. Click HERE for more information.
Yale is one of the world's leading ethnographer-artists of
klezmer and Romani music, history, and culture. With his masters
in Yiddish Studies (NYU), He conducted numerous ethnographic
research trips to Central and Eastern Europe. His findings formed
the repertoire of his klezmer band, Hot Pstromi. In
addition, his research has been used to direct ten award-winning
documentary films, write eighteen books, write two award- winning
audio dramas, record seventeen music recordings, and have many
photo exhibitions in North America and Europe. Yale Strom
currently teaches in the music department at San Diego State
University.

I'm saddened to share that my older brother John Pacheco ’70 has passed away at the age of 73. He was recently diagnosed with advanced pancreatic cancer and chose hospice care. He passed away Tuesday morning May 12th. In keeping with his wishes, there will be no funeral services, but your thoughts and prayers are greatly appreciated during this difficult time — Monica Pacheco Zech ‘72
