SUMMARY:Ann Arbor Jewish Book Festival Program
DESCRIPTION:IN-PERSON LUNCH & LEARN @ THE JCC\nWith Author Martin Fletcher\, Teachers: The Ones I Can’t Forget\nModerated by Efrat Lachter\, Investigative Correspondent for Israel’s Channel 12 News\n12 PM @ the JCC\nTeachers are the people Martin Fletcher met throughout his work as a news correspondent\, often on the worst day of their lives. He watched as they picked up the pieces following personal tragedy and discovered  the invaluable lesson of carrying on\, no matter the circumstances. \nThrough intimate profiles\, Martin Fletcher’s Teachers details the struggles of everyday people in extraordinary circumstances-war\, revolution\, natural disasters and yes\, life. Fletcher’s writing is uplifting as he examines the truth of resilience despite hardship. These are the people he sought out in his international reporting\, detailing their woes while celebrating their will to survive and recover. \nTeachers offers a unique take on reporting\, as it features a traveling photo exhibit that Fletcher created to accompany the book. Each chapter is paired with an extraordinary digital montage to illustrate the stories taken directly from his reporting from NBC news programs. At a time when news coverage is often dismissed as fake or biased\, Teachers is a welcome reminder of the integrity\, devotion and empathy that goes into true reporting of the world. As Tom Brokaw wrote\, “Fletcher has a calling.” \nCon­sid­ered for decades the ​“gold stan­dard of TV war cor­re­spon­dents” by Ander­son Coop­er\, Mar­tin Fletch­er was an NBC News Cor­re­spon­dent and bureau chief in Tel Aviv for near­ly thir­ty years. Fletch­er has won five Emmys and a Colum­bia Uni­ver­si­ty DuPont Award — a Pulitzer for work in tele­vi­sion — as well as awards from the Over­seas Press Club and Roy­al Soci­ety of Tele­vi­sion. Today\, Fletcher’s work as an author is rapid­ly gain­ing an equal­ly impres­sive rep­u­ta­tion. He cur­rent­ly lives in Mex­i­co and New York. \nEfrat Lachter is an investigative correspondent for Israel’s Channel 12 News and the weekly newsmagazine “Friday Studio.” A recipient of the 2022 Shimon Peres Center for Peace Award\, she has directed and produced more than 200 documentary segments on topics including human trafficking in Sudan and Israel\, modern-day slavery in Malawi\, orphans in Ukraine\, internal political corruption in Israel\, and a women-and-children-only village in the Kurd-controlled area of Syria. As the first female war correspondent in her newsroom\, much of her work has illuminated the lives of women in conflict zones. Lachter studied political science and communications at Tel Aviv University and journalism at the Koteret School of Journalism in Tel Aviv. She previously worked as an investigative journalist for “Uvda\,” Israel’s version of “60 Minutes.”
