My dad and Arnold were in the same fraternity, TEP [Tau Epsilon Phi], one of the Jewish fraternities on campus. They met and my father was kind of smitten. A year or two later when she was a little bit more of age, still not completely of age, they both worked at a summer camp up in Maine. That's when they, Maine or New Hampshire, it may have been, New Hampshire. But that's where they actually started going out. They met, as my mother delights in saying, when she was basically sensitive that my father and Arnold were scheming to have her breakup with a boyfriend. She was going to just get together with my dad, make him fall really hard, and then drop him. But then she fell too, so that was it.

Dekalb schools, where Kittredge was, near Toco Hills, was a really good public school system. At the time, the Atlanta school system was not nearly as good. I went from being a pretty good student at Kittredge to being this straight-A student. I was bringing home hundreds and ninety-nines. I was so excited, and my mother was so upset.

I actually was just outside the Briarcliff district, but all my friends from growing up had still been at Briarcliff.  I told my parents I'd love to go to Briarcliff. Because Dekalb schools were better, my mother was all in on that. We met with the principal named Ernest Hallford, and he swung a deal. He said, “You can come here if you're in the eighth-grade chorus instead of taking shop.” Instead of doing woodshop and tech stuff, I was in the chorus, which was a little debilitating in eighth grade, but I overcame it. I got to be at Briarcliff with my friends. Then the federal funding rules started working out where you couldn't be in a school that had a lower percentage of minorities than another school. I think North Fulton, where I was supposed to go, was maybe at that point, I'm guessing, six percent black, Briarcliff was maybe three. Something new came up, which is I needed to take a course at Briarcliff if I wanted to stay there, this was in 10th grade or 11th grade, if it wasn't offered at North Fulton. The one course that was offered there, in light of the neighborhood, was Hebrew. I took Hebrew and Spanish at the same time, which completely messed up my languages. I didn't have natural facilities anyway, so I ended up taking Hebrew. Then on top of that, because my father was worried about his law license, me going to school outside the district, the Levitas family, this goes back to Elliot and Babs Levitas, my godparents, took out legal guardianship of me. Babs did. Elliot was in Congress at this point, so Babs signed the papers. I lived at their home for five days a week during the school year for two years. Which was awesome, because when you're a junior and senior in high school and you're ready to spread out your wings and not be home quite so much, I had the perfect excuse.

There was still, unbeknownst to me, a little bit of this Russian German Jewish division. In the Toco Hills area, we're mostly of either Spanish or Russian extraction. In the northwest Atlanta, there's mostly German Jews and the extraction. I didn't make any connection with any of that, except if I went to bar mitzvah or bat mitzvah at Or VeShalom , I knew, okay, this is sort of the Latino or Ladino piece. AA [Ahavath Achim] . . . I kind of had a feel for it. The Standard Club at the time was sort of more German Jewish thing still. Then The Progressive Club, which I grew up with, was more the Russian Jew and others. There's a little bit of an economic disconnect. Growing up, getting back to your question of what it was like, it was idyllic. I had a great time. AZA [Aleph Zadik Aleph], BBG [B’nai B’rith Girls], BBYO [B’nai B’rith Youth Organization] was big. But we, in the Briarcliff, Toco Hills area, generally would refer to the northwest Jews as the Golden Ghetto. That was because those people had pools and tennis courts. It was just a different level. It was never anything where we didn't socialize and get along.

There were so many Jews around that we'd have a school bus that would come pick us up to go to Sunday school. I remember it well, because we would pitch pennies, or nickels and dimes. It was like a nickel for a soda and a dime for a candy bar, or vice versa. We'd pitch them in the back of the bus. Then we'd go to the AA and they had vending machines, and you could get stuff. If you lost, you got nothing, if you won, you get a lot. One of my few real talents in life was pitching nickels and dimes, it turns out. I was like the godfather of the candy and soda machine. We went to AA. Then in probably about fifth grade, the Temple Sinai started. Rabbi [Richard] Lehrman, who was a rabbi at The Temple, broke off because a lot of people at The Temple wanted bar mitzvahs and something a little more traditional. My parents, especially my mother, my dad wasn't really that into organized religion, but my mother decided this was a really good opportunity. We were charter members of the Temple Sinai when there was no synagogue there. In fact, I ended up getting bar mitzvah at the Church of the Atonement. They would just drape over the crucifix and all and we'd have our ceremonies. At any rate, for synagogue, that was it. I've since migrated to The Temple, sort of back to the start of the Temple Sinai in a way. Then on the . . . organizational Jewish end, back in the day, which is I guess what these recordings are about, back in a day, BBYO in Atlanta was different than BBY in most cities. Most cities would have AZA chapters for the guys, BBG, B'nai B'rith girls, for the girls. They would be from middle school through high school, everybody together. In Atlanta, we had it by grade.

Last night I was with a guy, Steve Waronker, who was in the AZA chapter. It was a really fun and special way to grow up, as you remember, because it based not just on BBYO, but the AJCC, The Atlanta Jewish Community Center, which was on Peachtree Road. It was the center of Jewish life. We would come and play softball, we'd play basketball, learn to swim, have all of our club meetings. It was just a lot of fun. The only downside, from my mind, was that it wasn't open on Saturdays. They closed the thing on Saturday. The one time you could get all these Jewish kids together, but it was the Sabbath. I think, I'm guessing things have changed now, but then it was kind of a drag.  I still remember being on the JCC [Jewish Community Center] all-star basketball team my senior year and we upset the top-ranked team in this church league. It was all these white Jewish kids, and it was the South Side Church, these black kids who were great athletes. But the group of us had played together a lot, so we eke out this victory.

I just loved getting involved in stuff.  It was, in hindsight, a little embarrassing. First on the sports side, basketball was my true love. I played basketball on the team, played varsity. The last year, instead of playing varsity, I played on the JCC All-Star team, which was a blast, and the chapter team. Played on the tennis team [in] eighth grade. I was forbidden from playing football by my mother in seventh grade. I had been the quarterback of my Gray-Y team on this little place, [indistinct: 25:00: possibly: Harla Hope], this little school. We played some team that was huge. It was either first or second play. I go back for a pass and I get slammed, knocked out. I come to, I just see the coach's face, my mother's face. That, and sort of backing up, my mother wasn't really excited about my playing. [She] had me wear red socks and put flowers on my helmet so she could tell who I was in the field. I was the quarterback, so it really shouldn't have been hard to tell. Here I am sprawled out with my red socks and flowers on my helmet, which she convinced me was cool because of the hippie days and all this stuff. She just kind of announced then, this is your last season. Eighth grade, I was forbidden from playing football and I was singing in the chorus. It was a banner star to my eighth-grade year. But tennis and basketball were great. I got really involved in that and some civic kind of stuff. The embarrassing part is that I was really involved in student government things. I was president of my 10th grade class, my 11th grade class, and then president of student government. In the same year, I was actually president of Judah. People were kind of funny and said, “Oh, you're going be president of everything.” It's like, I'm not, but I don't know what drove me at that point, but it's just fun organizing things.

My mother was president of the American Jewish Committee and stayed very involved for many years. They were involved in other things, too. My mother was head of Leadership Atlanta for a decade or so. But the thing that really jumps to mind for both of them is early on, they got involved with civil rights. Their friends in Atlanta ended up being black friends, African American friends. Professionally, my dad was very friendly with Maynard Jackson. My mother became very friendly with Maynard Jackson and Andy Young, John Lewis, and Vernon Jordan, these big names in the pantheon of sort of post-MLK [Martin Luther King] civil rights. Post-assassination. Though they were involved a little bit before that. There weren't a lot of Jews that were that involved or as involved as they were. Particularly when Sidney Marcus, who was a family friend, was running against, I guess it was Andy Young for mayor? Or no, Maynard Jackson, I think. No, it wasn't. I'm sorry. Sidney Marcus was a family friend, but it was Sam Massell ran against Maynard Jackson, and because my parents were so involved in the black community and thought so highly of Maynard, they lined up with Maynard. Maynard Jackson ended up winning, and the airport is named after him and Ivan Allen now. He was, he's an iconic figure in Atlanta history. Through those connections, they weren't trying to do anything other than just right the ship on racial equity in Atlanta. But as a result of their early involvement and their continual involvement, that was just that was something we grew up with. I grew up knowing John Lewis and Vernon Jordan and Maynard and other people. That set me apart in a really nice way, not as a “Haha look what I'm doing,” but just in hindsight, a really nice way from most of my contemporaries because I saw a side of Atlanta that they only saw later.","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://thebreman.aviaryplatform.com/collections/994/collection_resources/164940/file/300080#t=1616.0,1744.0"},{"id":"https://thebreman.aviaryplatform.com/collections/994/collection_resources/164940/file/300080/transcript/92789/annotation/73","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"\u003cstrong\u003eAROGETI:\u003c/strong\u003e You matriculate through high school and then you go off to college.

I had never heard of Tuft's, but there's an old college book called Cass and Birnbaum that back in your day and mine, that's what you looked at. I looked at the usual Southern schools. One was Tulane and then on the opposite side of the page, alphabetically it was Tufts. There was something about the write-up that just intrigued me. My mother was from Boston. I checked it out and ended up applying and going there. Now, I wouldn't be able to get into Tufts. It's become so competitive. Then, I think, it was unusual for . . . a kid from the South to go up there. I go to Tuft's in Medford and had just a great experience, really great. You were asking about involvement in things. I played basketball, as I said, a lot in high school for years, for decades. It was my true love sport. It was really clear that I could get on the JV team, but it was equally clear that I wouldn't be playing a lot, because they're some great players. I wasn't interested in just riding the bench, but I was thinking about it. I was playing basketball in the afternoons, [and I] kept seeing these like little, like really thick badminton racquets. I had no idea what they were. I followed a guy who was going to play and I looked, turns out it was squash. I am sitting up in the stands watching this game. This guy played squash, two guys. The guy next to me said, “Have you ever played squash?” I said, “No.” He said, “You played tennis?”  I said, “Yes, I played tennis.” I was varsity tennis team, all that. He was explaining the game to me. He said, “You should try it out. I think you'd be a natural at this.” I said, “I've never played squash.” He said, “Let's go down and hit.” I went down and hit with the guy and he said, “You should go out for the team.” I said, “Who are you?” He said, “I'm the squash coach, Rick Shapiro.” I played squash in college, which was fun. It was a great game. I was playing with all these preppy kids who had grown up at like Andover [Massachusetts] and Groton [Connecticut] and places. I did that for a couple of years, [I did] Mountain Club. I was a Big Brother at the Leonard Carmichael Society in south Boston. This is when south Boston had real racial issues. I had never seen discrimination like I saw in south Boston. I had a white Irish kid who I parted company with after a year or two, Bobby because friends beat him up because I brought him to campus and introduced him to sort of a mixture of people, not just white, Southy Irish kids. That was a shame that ended, but it was an interesting experience. Then, true to form from high school, I got involved in student government. I ended up junior year being president of the student government, and I studied abroad for a year in England.","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://thebreman.aviaryplatform.com/collections/994/collection_resources/164940/file/300080#t=1755.0,1917.0"},{"id":"https://thebreman.aviaryplatform.com/collections/994/collection_resources/164940/file/300080/transcript/92789/annotation/75","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"\u003cstrong\u003eAROGETI:\u003c/strong\u003e Kent, before we leave your college days, you were talking about some experiences with racial discrimination in Boston.

It's a public school, a Dekalb county public school. There were so many Jewish kids, it didn't really affect me much. The self- inflicted part I'm talking about is I'd have a Jewish star or Chai, and I started wondering whether wearing this was going to reduce my chances of going out with girls who weren't Jewish.

They were there for about five years and just moved to San Francisco and got married. Switching to the other daughter, Kayla was just a riot, this little kid just laughed all the time. But the thing that really jumps out for me with her, is she had this G-d-given talent with art. Her teachers would always comment on it saying, “Kids just can't do this stuff.” At a certain point, it was probably about ninth grade, she brought home some piece. I looked at it and I just said, if you want to go to art school, art college, that's great. She went to the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, had a great time there. She had the benefit of some mentors, including a guy, Todd Murphy, who's a painter from Atlanta, and a guy Gregory Colbert, he's an artist out of New York.

David's my brother, who's, as I mentioned earlier, he's 17 months younger. He's a psychotherapist, married to Deanna, and they met at UGA in college. They've been married, I think 40 years now. Though longer than Diane and me, we've been married 35 [years]. They've got three kids. Zachary's, their oldest, then they've got Jessica, and then they got [interviewee starts coughing]. Yes, sorry, let me just get some water for a second. Sorry about that, and Jonah. Zachary's in Atlanta, Jessica, who's married, is in New York, and Jonah is just finishing a landscape architecture program and got a job in Chicago, so he's starting in Chicago soon. Michael did historic renovation for a long time. He's a contractor, does construction work. He's married to Pamela, Pamela Gold, and who's part of a prominent Atlanta family, Burt and Lenore Gold’s daughter. Another connection there is they met at an engagement party for Diane and me because we’re very friendly with Pamela's sister and brother-in-law, Jim and Lauren Grien.  They were there, and they just kind of disappeared for the weekend. The rest was history and they ended up getting married. Jim and Lauren, by the way, are Nicki's godparents. Pamela and Michael moved into the house across the street from where we grew up on Judith Way, the one place we moved when I was in fifth grade. It was Mark and Judy Taylor's old house. Esther and Herbert Taylor's son's old house. That's where they live. Michael's done a phenomenal job with the house. He built a house next door. He's going to build another house. They have three kids also. Diane and I were the pikers, we only had two. All my other siblings have three.  They've got Lenore, who lives out in Oakland [California], Oakland or San Francisco, I think Oakland. Maya just graduated from Duke, and she's got a job up in New York. She's moving there right after the High Holy Days, which come around shortly here. Then Nolan is at Georgia Tech. He was the youngest grandchild, and he's a sophomore at Georgia Tech now. Then going to Paige, Paige is the youngest, seven and a half years younger than I am. Married to Steve Grand, they met on the Dukakis campaign in 1988 in Atlanta, at our house, I think. Steve came over, some staffers came over and Paige will tell you she saw these, this nice-looking guy with blue eyes, who's Jewish and she just sort of melted. I think he did, he maybe did the same. They've been married, I don't know how long, but I think over 30 years at this point. They've got three kids, Rachel, who's now at GW [George Washington], where you went, she's there for law school. She's just started this year. Then they've got Carly, who works in the environmental space too, for a company in New York. Then Josh, who's the second youngest, is at Emory, who is captain of their soccer team. All the grandkids are all-star kids, but by way of examples, focus on Josh. Emory nominates one person who's a Rhodes Scholar nominee a year. It doesn't mean you're going to become a Rhodes Scholar, but he is Emory's nominee for the senior year.

Paige has a storied career with USAID [United States for International Development] of late memory. It was the US Agency for International Development. It was sort of an arm on the side of the State Department for International Aid. In this administration, the [Donald] Trump administration, it's just been wiped, the whole agency has just been wiped out, but she was an assistant administrator. She was next to the administrators at the top. She was one of the four top deputies. She headed up the Middle East at one point, and Europe and Eurasia. When she left the government, she left to go to Amsterdam [Netherlands] because her son Josh was such a good soccer player that wanted him to train there. She got a job heading a small NGO [Non-governmental organization] out of Brussels [Belgium]. The combination of the experiences made her a perfect candidate for the Carter Center that was looking for somebody during COVID, to start during COVID. She interviewed, ended up getting the job, moved at the start of COVID here, much to the chagrin of her son Josh, who had been living in Amsterdam, free and lucky, and then was suddenly massed with a bunch of kids he didn't know at the international school. But it all worked out.

I applied for a job there a year and a half in and Larry Thompson was the U.S. Attorney. He later went on to be general counsel at PepsiCo and partner of King and Spalding. He's got a storied career, deputy attorney general. But, at the time he was U.S. Attorney and I interviewed with him and he hired me. In 1985, I went to the U.S. Attorney's office. I spent seven and a half years there. I headed the training section at one point because I liked trying cases and it was fun to teach other people how to do it who were new to the office. Then Larry Thompson, who had left to go back to King and Spalding a few years before, gives me a call. He asked if I'd be interested in coming to King and Spalding. Bob Barr was the U.S. Attorney at the time. I thought about it, and I thought, well this would be kind of interesting. When he calls up, he invites me to lunch. I had lunch with him and Griffin Bell who was the former U.S. Attorney General under [Jimmy] Carter. I'm trying to be very hush hush about this because I just, I don't want people to think I'm not being loyal to the U.S. Attorney's office. Especially if I'm not going, I don't want anybody to know. We go to The City Club, which was in the old equitable building, and picked a lunch at the same day that Kilpatrick and Cody, at the time my father's law firm, was having a partner’s meeting in the City Club. All these partners come filing through, like “Hi, hi, hi.” I'm sitting here clearly with two partners from King and Spalding. The gig was up on that a little bit.  Someone was kind enough to call from my father's firm to see if I'd be interested in coming on, they had an anti-nepotism policy. I talked to like another firm, but I went with King and Spalding. In 1992, I go to King and Spalding. Then Bill Clinton is elected. I'm a Democrat but, I never was that involved in politics and I'm pretty moderate I guess, where I am. But I thought, wow, how cool would it be to be U.S. Attorney. A friend and I, friends of mine and I including Elise Eplan started a group called Hands On Atlanta. We hired an executive director named Michelle Nunn. Michelle's father was Sam Nunn who was U.S. Senator at the time, the senior Senator. Sam Nunn was forming the committee in charge of selecting who to recommend to Bill Clinton. I never met Bill Clinton, so I had no connections there, but I thought, I'll put my name in. Long story short, the committee he had recommended me, and I became U.S. Attorney in January of 1994. I did that for about four years, little shy of four years. During that time were the Olympics and the Olympic bombing. Lots of stuff goes on when you're U.S. Attorney, but the bomb kind of just raised the visibility of my experience, in my mind, as far as what jumps out. In fact, I later wrote a book about it. I loved being in the U.S. Attorney's office. All told, I was there for about 11 years with the U.S. Attorney, AUSA [Assistant United States Attorney]. Then I get another call from Larry saying, “Hey, what do you think about coming back?” At that time, actually, I may have been the one to make the call, because Diane, my wife, was finishing her training. She had done general surgery, plastic surgery. We had a daughter who was born, Nicki, who was born three and a half weeks early, because Diane was working 36-hour shifts at Grady, and it was like, I was not happy with Emory at that time, I wasn't working there yet. She decided to take some time off to do research, transplant immunology research at Emory. She ended up being, it's called PGY, post-graduate year, like 10 or 11 by the end, because she spent all this time training, instead of going into practice, she was doing mouse heart transplants, and all sorts of stuff.  It reached a point, she decided she was going to go back to practice and go back actually to plastic surgery training. I thought, well, if she's not doing research anymore, something's got to give. I was traveling around the country, there were other bombings in Atlanta, I was giving talks, I was doing the investigation. I ended up getting in touch with Larry, who was really interested in me coming back, and Judge [Griffin] Bell, too.  I go back to King and Spalding at that point in late 2000. I'm at King and Spalding for oh no, no, what, I take that [back]. That was late 1997, 1994 and late 1997. I'm back there. I'd been elected partner before I left as U.S. Attorney, and distinguished myself in one respect, I was the firm's shortest lived equity partner in history. The partnership took effect on January 1, and I think I became U.S. Attorney on January 16, so I actually made more in my two weeks as equity partner than I did the entire year as U.S. Attorney. My mother still says, “Why do you keep taking jobs when you take pay cuts?” Anyway, I go back to King and Spalding in late 1997. Things were going really well. I ended up representing Emory on a couple of matters, the School of Medicine. Their general counsel, Joe Crooks, passed away. I get a call from someone at Emory saying, “Would you be interested in applying?” I wasn't, but then the more I thought about it, I thought what a great place to be a general counsel for the university and the healthcare system. I interviewed there, and I still remember talking to my father, he said, “How'd the interview go?” I said, “I think it went all right.” He said, “Who's on the committee?” I said, “Chilton [Varner], who’s a partner of mine, Ben Johnson, who tried to recruit me to Alston \u0026 Byrd, who I'd known for a long time, and Claudia Adkison, who's the associate dean who called me about the job.” My father said, “I think this might go okay,” and it did. They offered me the job, and I was there for about 11 years. It brought together the university and the healthcare system, general counsel office to consolidate into one. We had lots of different cases go on. Then, after Emory, I took a short stint, a misguided stint, to become general counsel of a publicly traded company out of Chicago. A buddy of mine from, who I met at the London School of Economics, recruited me for that. I thought this will be really interesting. He said, “You can live in Atlanta and all this stuff. We have an executive team all over the country.” The week after I took the job, the executive team all converges on Chicago and everybody's moving to Chicago. I was there three months. It was a horrible professional decision for me and I'm afraid I left them in a spot too. But then it turns out there was an opening at CARE, the international NGO based in Atlanta. Their general counsel was leaving, and they asked me if I'd be interested in being general counsel. I was there for a bit. Then in 2014, I decided I was going to write a book on the Olympic bombing, this guy named Richard Jewell, and I'll come to that in a minute. I thought, I don't want to run for office, even though friends of mine always said, “Oh, you're going to run for whatever.” I really didn't want to. But I did want to do something to get involved in a political campaign because I thought the level of discourse had become so bad in the U.S. I had no idea what it would become later on. At the time, I thought, if you could elect somebody who's a moderate Democrat from the South, who is a bridge builder, that'd be great. Michelle Nunn, Sam Nunn's daughter, the one who headed Hands on Atlanta, was running for Senate. I took a year to be her chief of staff. Clearly didn't do that good of a job, she didn't win. But she ran a good campaign and would have been a good senator. After that, I turned to writing this book on the Olympic bombing, which I wanted to write. The reason I wanted write it was that the Olympics had happened while I was U.S. Attorney. A guy named Richard Jewell had been fingered as the lead suspect. A team I had assembled within my office, and I were looking at every FBI [Federal Bureau of Investigation] 302, which is the report of interviews, hundreds and hundreds of them. It wasn't long before you said, “We don't think this guy did it.” Then it became an exercise of negotiating with the Bureau to have them look beyond it. The guy who was head SAC [Special Agent in Charge], Woody Johnson, was great about this. I finally said, “If I could get Richard Jewell to interview, and you can ask him anything you want, in three weeks, can you tell me whether you have a case or not?” A guy named Jack Martin and I negotiated that out. Richard came in and interviewed. There's later a movie on this and so I got Paul Walter Hauser’s there and in it. Jon Hamm is the FBI agent. It’s got this scene that mimics, it's not exactly the same, but it mimics the scene that actually took place. The FBI asked a lot of questions and three weeks later, I met with them and said, “Do we have a case?” They said, “He may have still done it, but there's not substantial evidence.” I wrote this guy, Richard Jewell, a clearance letter, which is a little unusual to do. I wasn't quite sure what was going to happen in my career, If he turned out to be the bomber. I think it would have been, it would've been great for justice if they found the bomber. It would not have been great for my career. It was just an obvious right thing to do. We did that, and it turns out he wasn't. A guy named Eric Rudolph was the bomber. I left the office before they found him, but at the end of the day, I had decided I wanted to write a book about this because I just thought it was a pretty interesting story. I went to Owen Forrester's funeral. He's a judge, a federal judge. He was the judge in the case, and I thought, you know, write this before everyone is gone. After CARE, I did practicing law. I did things here and there, but more one-off, and I spent almost five years, right, four years, four or five years writing this book with my co-author, Kevin Salwen. We published the book, and we were pleased the way it turned out. Warner Bros. bought it, originally Disney, then Warner Bros., bought it for a movie by Clint Eastwood. I suppose that the biggest professional surprise in my life was going to the opening at the Chinese Theater when they had the big opening of the movie. They had the stars there and the red carpet, and Diane and I got to walk the red carpet. It was kind of cool. The biggest surprise was, I hadn't seen the movie, and I knew I was not going to be a character in the movie, that wasn't the focus of the script. We'd met with the screenwriter, Billy Ray, who'd flown out there, but there towards the end of the move, they zero on the clearance letter and there's my signature.  I've got a signature cameo in the Clint Eastwood movie, so that was kind of fun. The book went pretty well. Then I . . . decided to shift more towards, again, one-off legal things, and then more civic stuff. I was president of The Temple during COVID, which was right after the book came out, essentially. That was a nice opportunity to do some things.","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://thebreman.aviaryplatform.com/collections/994/collection_resources/164940/file/300080#t=2893.0,3628.0"},{"id":"https://thebreman.aviaryplatform.com/collections/994/collection_resources/164940/file/300080/transcript/92789/annotation/115","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"\u003cstrong\u003eAROGETI:\u003c/strong\u003e I'm curious, Kent, why, or what was your trajectory to become president of the Temple, a lay leader?","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://thebreman.aviaryplatform.com/collections/994/collection_resources/164940/file/300080#t=3628.0,3637.0"},{"id":"https://thebreman.aviaryplatform.com/collections/994/collection_resources/164940/file/300080/transcript/92789/annotation/116","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"\u003cstrong\u003eALEXANDER:\u003c/strong\u003e At The Temple, it's unusual, the way that they set things up.

Then if the powers that be think you might be a leader of The Temple at some point, you become a treasurer or a secretary treasurer, and then a vice president, an executive vice president. I guess I didn't realize there was a trajectory like that and at one point, when I took the job as general counselor for this health care company out of Chicago, I had been named vice president. I didn’t understand what that really meant. All I knew is I was overwhelmed, so I dropped off the board. Billy Bauman, who was president at the time, I think was probably ready to kill me, and Jim Grien, too. But I was like, guys, I've just got too much going on. Then when things settled down, I got back on the board and got back on what I still didn't realize, naively, was a runway path for takeoff.  Next thing, year after year, again, it's about 10 years, I ended up being executive vice president.

I'd take my bicycle. I'd ride it from Ansley nearby. I'd go to The Temple. I could get in. There wouldn't be a soul there. It was kind of like a Where's Waldo board meeting. Sometimes I'd have myself set up on Zoom in the sanctuary, sometimes the boardroom, sometimes the rabbi's office. It was running things with other leaders from The Temple, lay leaders, remotely. We ended up doing, we did a huge technology initiative. We had all sorts of new hires and personnel changes. It was an unusual opportunity to kind of get things done.

Then I fast forward to your question, Joel, and I think back to growing up at the AJCC, the JCC, Jewish Community Center on Peachtree Street, which doesn't exist anymore. It's now restaurants and condos and all that stuff.  But it was, I've said idyllic before, but it really was this idyllic, cocoonish type environment where you go and you just, you were around so many Jewish kids and so much Jewish programming. It was just, it's where you went. I went to the Progressive Club in the summer and swam and played tennis. But the JCC was, at the time, was the central, it was the focal point of all of Jewish Young Atlanta. We would do things like evening softball games with a train going past the fence. You couldn't even hear the umpire call if the train whistles going. You could actually hit a home run over the fence in left field if you swung high. If the center fielder or the other fielder, there are two fields facing each other, so the ball would just go forever. If you hit a homerun or a line drive and somebody didn't catch it, you were all the way around. I was more of like a singles, doubles guy, but kids like Bruce Leaf would swing for the fences. It was really fun, and if you could hit the train, that was awesome. But that's a bygone era now and between that and the whole BBYO structure with so many kids knowing each other from different parts of the city and coming together at the JCC or at dances or ice skating at Colony Square, different places.  The world shrunk and you made relationships that lasts for a lifetime.  Now I'd sense that things are much more spread out. You don't have BBYO, this glom of glue that really held everything together, and I don't have as much a sense of the Atlanta Jewish community with kids growing up. I had my own kids. I would say between the JCC and summer camps, you and I went to Barney Medintz. Barney Medintz is still thriving, but it was a huge part of growing up. For me being at Briarcliff, it was just an extension of the school year. That's one reason I think kids became so friendly with each other with these lasting relationships. You not only went to school together you hung out on week weekends together, you went to socials and dances together, and then the summer you went to summer camp together.  It was like Bondo glue that just held people together. I can't compare it to now except that I can say that life is so much more spread out. Atlanta is spread out. I don't think you will, I'm not sure we'll ever have quite that again, growing up in Atlanta.","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://thebreman.aviaryplatform.com/collections/994/collection_resources/164940/file/300080#t=4005.0,4180.0"},{"id":"https://thebreman.aviaryplatform.com/collections/994/collection_resources/164940/file/300080/transcript/92789/annotation/129","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"\u003cstrong\u003eAROGETI:\u003c/strong\u003e You mentioned a couple of times camp Barney Medintz.

There used to be a sign or something like \"Even a child can make themselves known,\" when you drive in.  Yes, I remember driving and just thinking this is a place where you can be whoever you want to be. You can make these great relationships you can get in touch with nature. You can camp out, you can ride horses, you can do water ski, all these things.  I think it still continues today, but there was camaraderie that formed and a joining of experiences that is unlike any other place I've ever been, and it's something you just you share with people. I spent 11 summers in Barney Medintz.  I started Village One. I went when I was seven years old. Actually, we sent our older daughter when she was seven, which was not a good thing. Seven is pretty young. She ended up going to another camp afterwards. But I just loved it from day one. I became a counselor there and I worked on waterfront some and stuff . . .

I'm reminded of a story of Boy Scouts, because I was active in Boy Scouts as a young man. One of the things that Boy Scouts tried to do was have the 16-year-olds be mentors for the 14-year-old, and the 14-year-olds were mentors for the 12-year-old, the 12-year-old for the 10-year-old, 10-year-olds for the 8-year-olds. I think you just mentioned a little bit about camp that some of the people that you looked up to were two years or three years or four years older than you. You matriculated through the camping system from a seven or eight-year-old all the way up to a close to an 18-year old. That's part of the fabric of Jewish Atlanta organizations like the JCC, summer camp, The Temple. You've commented on it just briefly, which is a little bit about back then Atlanta was a smaller place. It was a small Jewish community. One of our challenges that we have is dealing with a much larger and spread out geographically Jewish community and how do we make that feel like a community, something small? You were mentioning earlier your daughter lives in East Atlanta. That's part of her world and her community, and Jewish Atlanta is all over the metropolitan Atlanta area. It's not just Toco Hills in the northeast or the northwest part of town. We've got Jews as far north as Cherokee County or Forsyth County down to Riverdale [Georgia] and east past Stone Mountain [Georgia] to west Cobb County. What are some of your thoughts, whether as you were a leader at The Temple, because I know that your membership is geographically spread out, what are some of your thoughts about how will Atlanta, in your mind, grow? Somebody looking at this video 25 or 50 years from now, what their thoughts about how Atlanta has grown? If you were a fly on the wall at The Temple. Fast forward 25 or 50 years from now. What would that place look like? How would it look like compared to where it was 25 or 50 years before you?","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://thebreman.aviaryplatform.com/collections/994/collection_resources/164940/file/300080#t=4319.0,4476.0"},{"id":"https://thebreman.aviaryplatform.com/collections/994/collection_resources/164940/file/300080/transcript/92789/annotation/132","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"\u003cstrong\u003eALEXANDER:\u003c/strong\u003e It's a good question. I think one consistent theme through connection is just that, connection. If there is a connection of interest or connection of organizations. If I was looking forward, I would think that, be it causes, be it synagogues, be organizations like the Anti-Defamation League, American Jewish Committee, others, if people find a commonality of interest, then I can see that commonality of interest. Again, if you're based in a synagogue, if you’re based somewhere else, will bring people together. Sometimes if I were looking forward, I would think you would focus on some events that are physical. You just, you get people together, but we take a look at what's going on and what has been going on with the internet, now AI [Artificial Intelligence]. I mentioned The Temple with the technology there. I think technology and having connection through technology, coupled with physical presence, is going to be just kind of a way of life. Where people maybe at The Temple, for instance, if I go forward 25, 30 years, I can see people saying, “Oh my G-d, I see somebody who actually lives in Colorado.” Just for some reason just likes the services, likes whoever the rabbi is at The Temple and likes some programming and said, “You know what, I want to come in. I want to go see it in person.” Sort of like if you want to go see Madison Square Garden, or you want to see Fenway Park. I can see something like that where, maybe I'm getting off topic a little bit because that's not so much Atlanta, but it's spreading out really far. Atlanta is so big and spread out, it could be the same type thing. You could be in Roswell [Georgia] or Milton [Georgia] or Cherokee County, and you may not be coming in to go to . . . the Atlanta Jewish Film Festival events all the time, but you may come in and decide, oh, I'm going to get a hotel and spend a few nights here and sort of get my Jew on a little bit, like just connect some.

You foreshadowed it by talking a little bit about technology and creating communities, both virtually and physically in presence. I think that that's really profound.
