The San Diego Center for Jewish Culture presents journalist and author Susan Orlean at Garfield Theatre as part of the 17th Annual San Diego Jewish Book Fair. In her first original book since The Orchid Thief, Orlean reveals the factual history, the enduring legend and the iconography of one of the world's most famous canines, Rin Tin Tin. Learn about the dog discovered on a battlefield during World War I -- the first of the many Rin Tin Tins -- who became a bona fide Hollywood star in the '20s, moved on to radio in the '30s, and was forever stamped into the American psyche in TV in the '50s. In this live appearance, Orlean discusses Rin Tin Tin and the everlasting human-animal bond.
