In Conversation: A Decade of Jewish South Beach
November 15, 2020
Through dozens of black-and-white images, photographer Gary Monroe takes readers on a time-traveling journey to an oft-forgotten moment in Miami Beach history: when it was a retirement haven for American Jews. The Last Resort: Jewish South Beach, 1977-1986 scratches at Miami’s present-day persona as a cosmopolitan global destination to reveal an earlier iteration, fondly recalling a people, place, and community that’s now faded from view. He’s speaking with Miami Beach native Mitchell Kaplan, Miami Book Fair co-founder and owner of iconic local independent bookstore Books & Books.
