UPDATES Irv Weintraub On Short List For Jewish Philanthropy Prez
Former William Morris COO, and late addition to the short list, Irv Weintraub lost out on that job to be president of the Jewish Federation. The search committee picked Jay Sanderson, who has led the the Jewish Television Network since 1989 and exec produced the PBS series, The Jewish Americans, and the upcoming PBS documentary on modern genocide, Worse Than War.

Boo Hoo. The guy deserves to rot. I would have considered converting. Obviously the UJA did their homework…..
Whaddaya know, kharma actually works!
Jay is a great choice. Has done a great job JTN. Now maybe he can clean house with some of the dead wood in the entertainment division of UJF. He should do well. As for Irv…maybe he can start to return some phone calls from two years ago.
Shalom…..That also means goodbye Irving…..Please leave the premises – that means Los Angeles…..
Passed over . . . passover . . . very funny, Nikki. You could get a job writing for Entourage with that kind of wit.
