    "Irving Berlin was a remarkable man, and late 19th to early 20th century, America is a fascinating era. I grew up listening to my musical parents singing and playing the songs of Berlin, Gershwin, Porter and others. In grammar school we sang songs of Foster and in high school played the marches of Sousa. Reading, viewing images and listening to music from this period, in particular that of Irving Berlin, has reawakened my identity as an American, understanding better where we have come from.”
