A Grocery Store on Every Corner: A Century of Jewish Grocers in Colorado (RMJHS documentary, 2002)
The Rocky Mountain Jewish Historical Society and Beck Archives at the University of Denver work to educate the public about the history of Jewish life in Colorado and the Rocky Mountain West. We sponsor lectures, exhibits, digital resources, travel programs, and research opportunities to promote a richer understanding of the Jewish experience in our region.
"A Grocery Store on Every Corner: A Century of Jewish Grocers in Colorado" was written and directed by former RMJHS director Dr. Jeanne Abrams, with video production by Starwest Productions. It was created for the Rocky Mountain Jewish Historical Society's Annual Heritage Award Dinner in 2002.
Among the individuals interviewed and featured in the film are Louis Richtol, Libby Rosen, Marjorie Hornbein, Rose Gvirtz, Lou Mozer, Sherwin Rosen, Zelik Herman, Harry Perlov, and Rosyne Gardenswartz.
