Golden Hands
In 1990, 16-year-old Vadim Gluzman was .
granted five minutes to play his violin for
the late Isaac Stern. A friendship ensued
— Stern became a great influence on
Gluzman both as a musician and a human
being, and the younger violinist worked
with Stern in both Israel and the United
States.
Detroit audiences will have the oppor-
tunity to hear Gluzman during Detroit
Symphony Orchestra concerts taking .
place Nov. 10-12, in Orchestra Hall at
the Max M. Fisher Music Center. DSO
Music Director Emeritus Neeme Jarvi will
conduct the first of two concert series
he'll lead in Detroit this season. The
program includes Rossini's Overture to
William Tell; Edouard Lalo's Violin con-
certo, Symphonic Espagnole, featuring
Gluzman; and Shostakovich's Symphony
No. 15.
Gluzman was born in 1973 in the city; of
Zhitomir, Ukraine, into a family of profes-
sional musicians; he began studying the
violin at age 7. Before moving to Israel
in 1990, he studied with Zakhar Bron
and later with Yair

The Art Of Film
Unlike other pop-culture media such as
books, prints, magazines and records,
film posters never were intended for sale
to the public. Produced by the studio for
exclusive use by the theater, they were to
be returned immediately after a film was
done showing and were usually destroyed
shortly thereafter. Very few survived.
That's what makes so rare the 75 film
posters•from the collection of guest
curator Otto Buj in the Art Gallery of
Windsor's new exhibition, "Representing
Cinema and the Art of the Film Poster:'
which runs Nov. 11-Jan. 7. Buj, a film-
maker and information coordinator at
the AGW, has been collecting and restor-
ing film posters for the past 15 years. He
is also a programmer for the Windsor
International Film Festival, running Nov.
9-12 (see www.windsorfilmfestival.com
for details).
The film posters in the exhibit come
from around the world and date from
1924-1978. Countries represented include
the U.S., the Soviet Union, Poland,
Czechoslovakia, France, Italy, Japan,

Feuerstein, a practicing Jew, grew
up in a religious family. He was a top
athlete in high school and graduated
from Princeton with honors. Last
year, he married Dana Klein, 32, a
TV writer and producer. Fittingly
enough, the Beverly Hills rabbi who
married them, Jonathan Aaron, is
a former actor and the author of a
musical about a talmudic scholar.
Another good-looking guy, actor-
director Liev Schreiber (Everything
is Illuminated), has just joined the
cast of the hit series C.S.I. (Las
Vegas). His first episode will be
shown this January.

Add San Diego Charger David Binn,
34, to the list of NFL Jewish players.
A friend tipped us, and we confirmed
that the veteran "long snapper" is
Jewish on his father's side. While not
religious, Binn is proud of his Jewish
background.
Binn is in his 13th year with San
Diego and soon should set the
record for the most
games (201) anyone,
ever, has played as a
Char:ger.
The movie-star hand-
some Binn has mas-
tered the very special-

Golf Digest is out with a fun list
of the top 100 golfers among musi-
cians. The four Jewish musicians
on the list includes smooth-jazz sax
player Kenny G, whom the Digest
ranks No.1 in ability among musi-
cians who golf. The Digest says
that Kenny (who was born Kenny
Gorelick) is almost good enough to
be on the pro golf tour.
Rounding out the kosher four-
some is Robby Kreiger, the guitar-
ist for the Doors, the famous '60s
rock band; country music star Ray
Benson (Asleep at the Wheel); and
Bob Dylan, who plays the Malibu
Country Club.
Film Notes
Michigan native Jeff Daniels is a
good actor and good guy who now
can be seen in national TV ads ask-
ing businesses to come to Michigan.
In a recent interview, he talked about
RV, a film comedy starring Robin
Williams and Daniels that opened
earlier this year to mixed reviews
and is now out on DVD.
Daniels, a serious amateur musi-
cian, said that he wrote a song
about the director of RV, Barry
Sonnenfeld, while on the set:
