Izis Bidermanas is one of the most important French photographers. His career started at the end of World War II, with portraits of his resistance comrades in Limoges. Izis' work was included in the popular 1955 photography exhibition The Family of Man at the Museum of Modern Art. He was on the staff of Paris-Match, specializing in photographs of painters, artists and writers. Isaac Stern (1920 - 2001) was an American violinist born into a Jewish family in Kremenets, Poland, now Ukraine. Stern came with his family to San Francisco when he was 14 months old. In 1928, he enrolled at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, where he studied until 1931 before going on to study privately with Louis Persinger. He returned to the San Francisco Conservatory to study for five years with Naoum Blinder. In 1940, Stern began performing with Russian-born pianist Alexander Zakin, collaborating until 1977. Within musical circles, Stern became renowned both for his recordings and for championing certain younger players. Among his discoveries were cellists Yo-Yo Ma and Jian Wang, and violinists Itzhak Perlman and Pinchas Zukerman. Stern began performing in Israel in 1949 and always maintained a close relationship with the country. In 1973, he performed for wounded Israeli soldiers during the Yom Kippur War. During the 1991 Gulf War and Iraq's Scud missile attacks on Israel, he had been playing in the Jerusalem Theater. During his performance, an air raid siren sounded, causing the audience to panic. Stern then stepped onto the stage and began playing a movement of Bach. The audience then calmed down, donned gas masks, and sat throughout the rest of his performance. Stern was a supporter of several educational projects in Israel, among them the America-Israel Foundation and the Jerusalem Music Center.
