The Paley Center for Media recalled America’s Jewish mother during the Aug. 24 event “Groundbreaker: Remembering Gertrude Berg.” Credited with creating the sitcom “The Goldbergs”— both on radio and television — Berg was also the first recipient of an Emmy for lead actress in a comedy series. Between presenting an early episode of “The Goldbergs” and selected clips from Aviva Kempner’s documentary “Yoo-Hoo, Mrs. Goldberg,” producer Gary David Goldberg (“Family Ties,” “Brooklyn Bridge”) led a discussion on Berg’s legacy, with Kempner, author Glenn D. Smith Jr. (“Something on My Own: Gertrude Berg and American Broadcasting 1929-1956”), director Arthur Hiller and actress Charlotte Rae.

Hagy Belzberg, the museum’s architect, spoke about the unique challenges and opportunities presented by designing the museum, the symbolism of various structural components and the state-of-the-art integration of green technology.
