"More Than a Thousand Words: Colorado Jewish Photographers Over 175 Years” (RMJHS Film, 2024)

The Rocky Mountain Jewish Historical Society and Beck Archives at the University of Denver work to educate the public about the history of Jewish life in Colorado and the Rocky Mountain West. We sponsor lectures, exhibits, digital resources, travel programs, and research opportunities to promote a richer understanding of the Jewish experience in our region.

"More Than a Thousand Words: Colorado Jewish Photographers Over 175 Years" was written and directed by former RMJHS director Dr. Jeanne Abrams, with video production by Starwest Productions. It was created for the Rocky Mountain Jewish Historical Society's Annual Heritage Award Dinner in 2024.

Among the people interviewed in the film are Robert Weinberg, Dr. David Mellman, and Barbara Carpenter.
