In this BookEnds program Rhona S. Weinstein and Harvey M. Weinstein are interviewed by Rae James, a member of the Published Writers of Rossmoor. The Weinsteins are a married couple who have written a work about family, historical reconstruction, and psychological inquiry centering on the tragic life and death of Eisig Lubetzky, Rhona's maternal grandfather. Rhona's mother Lotte revealed late in life that her father, Eisign, had died by suicide, a truth long hidden by the family. "The Empty Envelope: Family Secrets and a Grandfather's Legacy", is a riveting blend of mystery, biography, and memoir, charting an almost 30-year investigation across continents, languages, and historical upheavals. The story speaks to anyone who has searched their family tree for missing branches, confronted inherited silences, or grappled with the ways that history lives on within us. (2026)
