FAMILY REUNION A one-act play about three generations of a family, will be performed at the Gallery RIVAA on Sunday, March 4th, at 7:30 p.m. as part of the series titled "Our Lives - Our Experiences, by Roosevelt Islanders". 
Who better to write about human relationships than our own Helen Roht, long time Roosevelt Island resident? In 1941, working as a French translator for the Office of War Information, not knowing where she was assigned, she sailed to England under sealed orders in a convoy of 88 liberty and battle ships, German submarines chasing them. In London, she broadcasted daily news roundups from Piccadilly which, unknown to Helen, included coded messages for the French Resistance movement. Helen officially retired from the UN in 1973; but, fluent in numerous languages, she never stopped working there. She heads the Committee on Aging at the Assn. of Former International Civil Servants; has a BA from Hunter College and a Masters from Columbia. Here on RI, Helen started the Seniors Association and served as its pro bono program director for 6 years. From left: Helen Roht, Playwright Cast: Martin Samstat, Phyllis Burdoe, Mary Cavanaugh, Miebaka Yohannes, and Harry Small (not pictured) |
