Broadcast from 1929 to 1946 on American Radio, The Goldbergs was not only the first serialized Jewish-American radio comedy-drama, but also one of the earliest entertainment programs to authentically explore Jewish life in America and to incorporate themes relevant to World War II and the Holocaust. Under the close supervision of series creator Gertrude Berg, The Goldbergs became one of the most beloved programs of its era, inspiring laughs and occasional tears, all while serving as an invaluable bridge to cultural tolerance.
