Josh Kornbluth, the renowned playwright, performer and former host of KQED's "The Josh Kornbluth Show," will debut his new one-man show, Andy Warhol: Good for the Jews?, at the Contemporary Jewish Museum .
For his new one-man show, Bay Area performance icon Josh Kornbluth turns his attention to the subject of the Contemporary Jewish Museum's current exhibition, Warhol's Jews: Ten Portraits Reconsidered and attempts to answer the question "Was Warhol good for the Jews?". In his characteristically irreverent and informative style, he takes on the ten cultural luminaries portrayed by Andy Warhol, including such figures as Albert Einstein, George Gershwin, Golda Meir and the Marx Brothers.
There was no valet parking on Mission or Valencia streets 15 years ago. No one was no waiting 10 minutes in line for Tartine or Ritual coffee. The only slightly gentrified business on the Valencia strip was Val 21 – (now Dosa) right next to the lesbian bookstore. 23rd Street was inhabited by Radio Valencia (serving up pre-mp3 mixed music), instead of people drinking absinthe at Beretta.
