TV: Doc Profiles WWII Holocaust Journalist/Photographer

[Frank W. Baker]

 I know many don't have access to SHOWTIME (the pay cable network) but tonight (March 3) "Ahead of Time" premieres. The documentary uses interviews and rare archival footage to document the life of Ruth Gruber, a journalist, writer and world traveler who documented the rise of Nazism and who helped save 1,000 Jewish refugees from the Holocaust.  The New York Times reviewed the film recently. You can see the trailer and learn more about the film as well as the producer of the doc here. There is also a Random House book,WITNESS, about her life and legacy.
