We meet every Tuesday at the Westchester Society for Ethical Culture building in White Plains to socialize and listen to guest speakers on topics including local, regional and national social issues, economic and political topics, medicine and other science related subjects.

Extra Info    Paul Galan, a native of the former Czechoslovakia, survived the Holocaust with his family through a series of unusual circumstances and a great deal of good luck. Mr. Galen immigrated to the United States as a teenager with his parents in 1951. After college at CCNY, he spent his working career in New York's film industry as a highly recognized Director of documentary television programs for ABC News and independent broadcast groups. Since his retirement in 2006, he has been disseminating the memory and legacy of the Holocaust by sharing his own story of survival during this dark period of history.
