"I definitely embrace the Jewish reli-
gion; I just don't consider myself
responsible enough to call myself a
devout Jew because I haven't earned
that. But I definitely connect with the
traditions of the Jewish religion, and
culturally I consider myself a Jew.
"But I'm also half Irish. My moth-
er was brought up Irish Catholic, so
I consider myself a student of all
these religions right now, and in
preparing to have children, that's a
big responsibility to understand and
to come to terms with."
Have his feelings about faith
changed since playing a rabbi?
"I've learned to embrace it a little
bit more and accept my feelings
about religion in general. I now have
more respect for people who commit
themselves to a religious life. I grew
up feeling cynical about faith, but
now I'm inclined to believe that you
have to have faith in something,
some form of God.
"I believe there's some structure in
this universe, and everything is meant
to happen for a reason."

— Philip Berk

"World' Win

The documentary film Arguing the
World, directed by Joseph Dorman,

has just been awarded a prestigious
Peabody Award.
The film documents the lives of
New York intellectuals Irving Howe,
Irving Kristol, Daniel Bell and Nathan
Glazer, their common origins at the
City College of New York and their
divergent political and intellectual
encounters. It was screened at the
Detroit Film Theatre in 1998 and
aired on PBS stations last year.
The film was supported by a
1997 grant from the Fund for Jewish
Documentary Filmmaking adminis-
tered by the National Foundation
for Jewish Culture.
The George Foster Peabody Awards,
established in 1939 and first awarded in
1940, recognize distinguished achieve-
ment and meritorious public service by
radio and television networks, stations,
producing organizations, cable television
organizations and individuals. They per-
petuate the memory of the banker-phil-
anthropist whose name they bear.
The awards program is administered
by the Henry W. Grady College of
Journalism and Mass Communication
at the University of Georgia. To learn
