Marisa Scheinfeld:  The Borscht Belt

Based on her widely acclaimed book, The Borscht Belt:  Revisiting the Remains of America’s Jewish Vacationland (Cornell University Press), this traveling exhibition features Marisa Scheinfeld’s large-scale color photographs of the abandoned remains of the once famous resort hotels of the Catskill Mountain region.  A frequent guest lecturer, Scheinfeld’s photographs have been exhibited widely, and her work has been featured in numerous publications, including The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Newsweek, Slate Magazine, and American Photography.  She is also an adjunct instructor at Westchester Community College.
