Writing a “Legacy Letter” (Fall Term 2023)

Participant Testimonials:

Jay is a very organized course leader who keeps the class moving forward with respect for all and a soft manner. I admire his organizational capabilities.

I have learned from Jay before when he did the Hitchcock course; and I even had a Hitchcock viewing party afterwards to introduce a couple of people to his movies. Great fun!

Alfred Hitchcock's San Francisco (Spring Term 2023) 

Participant Testimonials:

I would recommend this course to ANYONE who enjoys film, particularly Alfred Hitchcock's. I do hope Mr. Sherwin does this again for others.

Jay was well-prepared with comments and visuals to fill most of the time, with appropriate time left for Q&A.
