David Rosenheim: Jewish Pioneer in Palm Beach County
Wednesday, December 10
7 – 8 p.m.
Clematis Room, 3rd Floor
Allan Huss, President of the Jewish Genealogical Society of Palm Beach County, will discuss what he's learned about his great-grandfather David Rosenheim. David was an associate of Henry M. Flagler and purchased the "Professional Building" (at the corner of Evernia Street and what is now Dixie Highway but was then Poinsettia Avenue) from the estate of Lily Kenan Flagler Thompson (Flagler's third wife) after she died. He was an early resident of Palm Beach and an early investor in what today is the City of Boynton Beach.

Join Dr. Paul Winner of Premiere Research Institute for an informative discussion on Alzheimer’s disease and the role of Tau-targeted treatments in supporting those living with the condition.

Author, fitness expert, and choreographer Amy Jordan will present her feature film Amy’s Victory Dance, which highlights her triumphs over traumas. Amy’s had diabetes since the age of 4, which was compounded by an eating disorder as a young adult. Then, at the age of 39, she was hit by a bus while crossing the street, pinned under the tire and her right leg was crushed, and nearly amputated. This film traces the story of her victory. Following the film, Dr. Paul Skorma from Mount Sinai New York–Concierge Care will provide a Q&A on diabetes.
