While 1-in-30 American women die of breast cancer, almost 1-in-3 will die from cardiovascular disease.

Cardiovascular disease causes approximately 1 death per minute among females in the U.S. If you are a woman or there is a woman in your life you care about, Raise Your Voice, we must not be silent. Tell every woman you know that heart disease is our No. 1 killer. Help stop the No.1 killer by attending the Long Island American Heart Association’s 13th Annual Go Red For Women Luncheon on Thursday, February 12th, 2014 at the Crest Hollow Country Club in Woodbury.

but in the true spirit of the holiday season, they brought a different kind of spirit on Thursday, December 19th during a planned visit that was set up with Stony Brook Children’s Hospital Child Life Program.

As they mingled and played with patients, the

players got a chance to hand out presents and teeshirts, shoot some hoops with the kids, and made a giant ‘Happy Holidays’ banner with the children in the playroom. The team’s efforts brought exactly what they hoped for; smiling faces and holiday joy.

National Wear Red Day Shore-Long Island Jewish Health System is the Cities Go Red Sponsor for the movement.

Every minute in the United States, someone’s wife, mother, daughter or sister dies from heart disease, stroke or other form of cardiovascular disease (CVD).

Heart disease is the No. 1 killer of women age 25 and older and stroke is the No. 4 killer of women, as women account for 61 percent of all stroke deaths annually. The American Heart Association Go Red For Women movement is about turning around these statistics. It’s also about resources, information and hope.

Donations to Go Red For Women help support our efforts to educate women and to fund breakthrough research by the American Heart Association that helps ensure women are represented in clinical studies.

For more than 10 years, women have been fighting heart disease individually and together as part of the Go Red For Women

movement. More than 650,000 women’s lives have been saved, but the fight is far from over.

On February 7th, or on a different day if you wish, you and your colleagues are encouraged to wear red (and dress down if your company allows) and each donate $5 or more.

As a thank you for their support, each participant will receive a Go Red For Women® red dress pin or sticker to wear, along with information about how to make healthy choices every day. As a Wear Red Day Coordinator, you’ll receive a Coordinator’s Tool Kit with all the materials needed to conduct a successful Wear Red Day event – including a Coordinator’s Guide, educational materials, posters, and ideas to make your event successful and fun.

“How do you go red?” asks the American Heart Association. On Friday, February 7th, 2014, people from across Long Island, as well as corporations, businesses, hospitals, towns, schools, local and state legislators, members of the media, teachers, and people from all walks of life will be wearing red to focus attention on - and raise funds to fight - the No. 1 killer of women – cardiovascular disease.

On February 7th, the American Heart Association’s 11th Annual National Wear Red Day asks women to show their support for the fight against heart disease in women by wearing red. It’s an easy, powerful way to speak up and show support for Go Red For Women®, the American Heart Association’s solution to save women’s lives.

Special Needs Resource Fair Interchange Business Organization (IBO) has teamed with The Mosaic Foundation for Autism to bring the first ever IBO/Mosaic Interactive Special Needs Resource Fair to Long Island on Saturday, February 1st, 2014 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., which will be held at The Mosaic School for Autism, located at 1309 Wantagh Avenue in Wantagh.

Designed to alleviate the typically drawn out “trial and error” process that so many families who have children with autism and other developmental and/or learning disabilities often endure, this FREE comprehensive resource fair will feature over 50 special needs industry professionals and educators specializing in more than 45 areas that include: cognitive development, special education, guardianship law and social security benefits.

Also readily available to provide free counsel and answer questions during the Fair will be speech, music and art therapists, sports,/activity coordinators, parent coaches, financial consultants, child and adult advocates, and social program providers.

In addition to bringing special needs industry experts under one roof, the Interactive Special Needs Resource Fair also provides families with a more genuine perspective on the various special needs programs available and how they might be of benefit to their children. Attendees are encouraged to bring their children to the Fair so they

can participate in a series of interactive breakout sessions that will allow opportunity to personally experience each program to help families uncover those most suited for serving their child’s unique needs. The day will also offer children in attendance fun and engaging activities, including children zumba, yoga, arts and crafts, as well as games and prizes.

“A common complaint often heard from special needs parents is that finding qualified experts can be difficult and time-consuming,” explains IBO President Tom Gibson, who has a 14-year-old son who is deaf.

“Our mission in hosting the Interactive Special Needs Resource Fair is to bring to the many families who have children with special needs a comprehensive, effective network of local, qualified professionals who are readily available to help them address and see through any issues, concerns or situations they might be facing.”

Founder of The Mosaic School for Autism and The Mosaic Foundation, Lauretta Murdock, who has two children of her own with autism, adds, “When raising children with special needs, time is always of the essence and can often mean the difference in helping children meet their potential. Realizing trial and error is not a luxury we can afford, our Fair is not only designed to be informative but also as interactive as possible, allowing

SUFFOLK ZONE 5 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY JANUARY 1, 2014 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

For The Love Of Jake Five months ago, Jake Koenigsdorf was found alone in his apartment, dead from a heroin overdose. He was 21. Like millions of others, his opiate addiction started with painkillers. IV heroin use is the last and cheapest option for kids like Jake who get hooked on opiates and can’t find a solution to get clean and stay that way.

Jake was unique and impossible not to love.

He tried so hard, but like so many, he died alone.

You see, most addicts and alcoholics have three options. Find a solution, get locked up, or die.

Until one of those options happens, they are a tornado ripping through the lives of everyone in their path.

The wreckage impacts everyone, including those who have lost loved ones or personal property to drug-related theft, DUI accidents, etc.

Jake’s biggest wish was to leave his mark in the world. He wanted to matter. His parents and friends want to achieve for him in death what he wasn’t able to in life. In his name, they have founded the Jake Koenigsdorf Foundation to raise money

to help alcoholics and addicts who are willing to do whatever it takes to get clean but don’t have the financial means to search for a solution - those that slip through the cracks, without wealthy families, insurance or access to state support. They must be desperate and willing.

That is the key, you see.

Willingness. If addicts are not willing to do whatever it takes to get clean, they will likely fail. It takes a level of desperation to commit to the program and way of life necessary to get and stay clean.

The Foundation isn’t just a dream. They have already raised enough to support eight addicts on their journey. Will they succeed? To be frank, if there was a cure, there would be no need for a foundation. But there is at least one solution that has helped many addicts and alcoholics stay clean for their whole lives. The hope is that the ones that the Foundation helps will join the ranks of these survivors.

The Foundation’s first fundraiser will be held at 7 p.m. on January 23rd at the Mansion at Timber Point in

Great River. There will be live music, a buffet dinner, speakers and a Chinese auction. Tickets are $50, and information for the event can be found on their Facebook Page – Facebook. com/jakekfoundation. You can also send an e-mail to Jakefoundation@gmail. com, a check to PO Box 401, East Islip, NY 117300401, or call 631.278.5536.

Please join us.

The hope is that Jake’s Foundation will be a force for change in the addiction community. If one addict survives because of its efforts, then Jake did not die in vain.

The Interchange Business Organization (IBO) is a business development networking organization that helps local business professionals build strong relationships while helping members experience new ways to improve and enhance business practices through common interests and synergies.

The Interactive Special Needs Resource Fair is a result of IBO’s Special Ops’ division. More information about IBO and this event is available at www.meetibo. com/special.

Honorary Degree

Major League Baseball pitcher Joseph M. Nathan, a Stony Brook University alumnus and former Seawolves baseball star, received an honorary degree during the first of two Winter Commencement ceremonies today. “Dr. Nathan,” who recently signed a two-year contract with the Detroit Tigers, and graduated from Stony Brook in 1997 with a degree in Business Management, was presented with an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters degree for “serving as an exemplary

role model” and for his “unwavering commitment to Stony Brook University and the Department of Athletics.”

During the ceremony, Nathan was praised for his work ethic, his passion, and his success on and off the field.

“I am blown away,” said the 341-save, six-time Major League All Star pitcher after his degree was made official by SUNY Trustee Cary Staller. “I have been taken aback and humbled by the whole experience.”

Nathan went on to say

that he was not widely recruited to play baseball; that Stony Brook was “the absolute perfect fit,” and that “coming to Stony Brook was one of the best decisions I ever made in my life.”

In total, 2,244 degrees were conferred at the two separate ceremonies: 1,090 Bachelors; 208 Doctorals; 818 Masters and 128 Certificates. The graduates join the more than 155,000 Stony Brook graduates from around the world who carry on Stony Brook’s mission in both their lives and work.

Mary Ann MalackRagona, Executive Director/CEO, Alzheimer’s Disease Resource Center, Inc. (ADRC), will be presenting a series of informational sessions on Alzheimer’s Disease to various Long Island communities throughout the month of January.

“What You Need To Know About Alzheimer’s Disease” will address the facts and myths about Alzheimer’s Disease, initial warning signs, research at the local and national levels, the essentials of long-term care planning, and how ADRC assists local

families.

The sessions will be available at various locations on the following dates and times: January 12th, 2014 at Jewish Center of the Hamptons, 44 Woods La., East Hampton at 1:00 p.m.

January 16th, 2014 at Huntington Public Library, 338 Main St., Huntington at 2:00 p.m.

January 27th, 2014 at Southampton Public Library, 91 Coopers Farm Rd., Southampton at 5:30 p.m.

January 29th, 2014 at Riverhead Free Library, 330 Court St., Riverhead at

6:30 p.m.

“I am glad to educate the public about the different aspects of Alzheimer’s Disease,” Ms. MalackRagona stated. “People need to know about the initial warning signs, how to take the proper steps for long-term care and the different resources that are available within their communities. We feel that many families are unaware of these important facts.”

For more information about ADRC, please contact Mary Ann Malack-Ragona, Executive Director/CEO at 631.820.8068 or visit www. adrcinc.org.

Carry-On Made Easier (NAPSI)-Doing a little homework before you travel could save you time at the airport.

For instance, visiting www.TSA.gov, the Transportation Security Administration’s Web site, can help you learn what

items can be packed in carry-on and which are best left in checked suitcases.

You can also learn size requirements for toiletries that are allowed on planes and then find properly sized items in stores.

As a final tip, remember

that all carry-on gels, liquids and aerosols need to be placed in a 1-quart, single zip-top, clear plastic bag. For more information and tips, visit www.shave. com.

Fighting Hunger On LI

Suffolk Federal Credit Union recently hosted its 5th Annual Food Drive benefitting Long Island Cares, the Hauppaugebased food bank that provides emergency food assistance to more than 550 agencies across Long Island including food pantries, soup kitchens, senior centers, day care centers, homeless shelters, veteran’s services and more. Through the generosity of its members, Suffolk Federal collected more than 1000 pounds of

food donations.

“At Suffolk Federal, we’re about more than just banking, we’re about community. We believe that all Long Islanders deserve enough financial security to provide their families with basic necessities like food and shelter,” said William O’Brien, President & CEO, Suffolk Federal.

“Partnering with Long Island Cares allows us to reach out to children and families suffering from hunger across Long Island.”

“We’re very grateful for the ongoing support from Suffolk Federal. The generosity of the credit union and their members enables us to make sure that families on Long Island that need emergency food receive it, especially at a time when more than 320,000 of our neighbors are impacted by hunger and food insecurity,” said Paule Pachter, Executive Director of Long Island Cares.”

Searching For That Fresh Start By: Jamie Lynn Ryan As much as I – and millions of others – look to the New Year as a fresh start of sorts, the question certainly arises: is such a thing even possible? In the age of racing from one day to the next, is there time to pause and press the reset button?

I always go back to the wise words of a dear friend, who said “you can start your day over any time you wish.” Well, if that’s true, then it would follow the same would go for a week, a month, a year… any point in time when such a clean slate is deemed necessary. In theory, anyway.

Does it work? Can all slights, real and imagined, be forgiven and forgotten?

Personally, I believe that they can. Forgiven, anyway.

Sure, the mind tends to dwell, and perhaps certain things are not meant to be wiped away completely, as they serve as building blocks, part of the learning curve of life.

Day to day, things happen; some we have control over, others we do not. But at the end of those days, we must step back and prioritize what is truly important.

And, despite all the outside forces, it always seems to come right back down to the basics – family, friends, loved

ones, those whom we cannot imagine our lives without.

And the memories… those individual moments that together create a collective sense of happiness and comfort, those memories we simply cannot live without and would do anything to preserve.

This New Year, my hope is the same as it has always been – for good health, happiness and days full of limitless possibilities. And memories. More precious moments to savor in the coming days and weeks and months and years – because those are the things you simply can’t press the reset button on.

of the most important figure associated with Christianity.

Although the messages present in modern Christmas advertisements - generosity, unity and family time - are evident, it has become clear that we are slowly losing sight of what the holiday means.

From both a religious and a child’s viewpoint, it seems easy to combine both a spiritual and a material Christmas into one holiday that we can all celebrate.

For instance, at Mass last week, St. John’s own Father Rob spoke about how we can seek Jesus’ love by loving others.

By treating others with respect through gift giving and spending time with

those we care about, we are able to get closer to God and enjoy His eternal love.

When Father Rob spoke about pausing and being thankful for what we have instead of concerning ourselves with the latest gift, he was illustrating what many people have prompted before.

He suggests that we should be concerned with using this time off from school to establish and firm a relationship with God and our family. Instead of rushing to wake up on Christmas morning to open up tons of presents, we need to be more focused on enjoying the journey and creating connections, both with God and those whom we care about.

Making Time For The Important Things

School’s out! It is Christmas vacation for over 1700 students attending St. John the Baptist DHS in West Islip. For hundreds of thousands of other students throughout the world, it is Winter Break.

Due to my attendance of Catholic school, I have been brought up associating Jesus Christ with the holiday season.

Now, more than ever, we are becoming exposed to the importance of “keeping Christ in Christmas.”

Although the season may lend itself to a period of gift giving and pseudoreligious celebration, the true meaning of Christmas cannot be lost. On December 25th, we remember the birth

Joel Foundation Donation Grammy Award-winning artist and recent Kennedy Center Honoree, Billy Joel, through The Joel Foundation, has once again generously provided for students and faculty in Stony Brook Music Department by donating another premiere concert piano; this time it’s a Bosendorfer Imperial Grand Piano, considered the “Rolls Royce” of pianos.

“I ran into Billy Joel last August in Sag Harbor and thanked him for the Baldwin Grand Piano he donated several years ago,” said Perry Goldstein, the Professor and Chair of Stony Brook University’s Music Department. “He told me he’s heard very good things about the music program at Stony Brook and said that he might have another piano for us. Some months later, we received the Bosendorfer.”

The Bosendorfer has

nine more keys than a conventional piano, which enables a completely new octave and elicits a huge, rich, luxurious tone.

Worth $250,000, the highend concert grand piano is housed in Staller Center recital hall where it has been played by members of the piano faculty and piano students in the graduate program.

“Stony Brook attracts over 100 graduate applicants in piano each year who are eager to study with our superb piano faculty, Distinguished Professor of Music Gilbert Kalish and Professor Christina Dahl,” said Goldstein. “We are pleased to add this showcase piano to our fleet of concert grands in the department and thank The Joel Foundation for their generous support of music at Stony Brook.”

The gift was made possible by The Joel

Foundation that provides music scholarships, gifts and endowments to institutions across the East coast.

“We are so gratified that our music program was singled out by such a giant in the music business,” said Dexter Bailey, Vice President for Advancement at Stony Brook. “Private philanthropy such as this is critical to Stony Brook, enabling our students and faculty to aim higher.”

About The Joel Foundation: The Joel Foundation was established to provide seed money, musical scholarships, and endowments to a variety of East Coast colleges, universities and music schools.

Awards and scholarships provided by the Fund are announced at the discretion of individual institutions.

Opening Reception Set Twenty-six artists have had their work selected for exhibit in the Huntington Arts Council’s 2013 “Making an Impression II” printmaking show, juried by Stephanie Navon Jacobson.

The public is invited to meet many of the artists and the juror during the exhibit’s opening reception on Friday, January 3rd from 6 to 8 p.m. at The Main Street Petite Gallery, located at 213 Main Street, Huntington.

Juror & artist Stephanie Navon Jacobson encourages all artists to explore printmaking, as she believes. “Printmaking is the only medium that inherently gives the artist a record of their thought process and decisions through state proofs. I enjoy technique and process and there can be lots of process in printmaking. It can be very sophisticated and complicated or very simple, and still yield

wonderful images.” When asked about her approach as a juror, Ms. Jacobson stated, “There were many wonderful submissions for this exhibit. I looked for technique and craftsmanship as well as building an exhibit that showcases the various intaglio, relief and planographic printmaking techniques. The result is a beautifully hung exhibit that hopefully educates and excites the viewer about the joys of printmaking!”

The twenty-six artists on exhibit: Joyce Abramowitz, Chris Ann Ambery, Margaret G. Andres, Beth Atkinson, Sharon Bourke, Mary Brodersen, Monika Camillucci, Dawn Daisley, James Darcy, Madeline D’Aversa, Jim Finlayson, Rosemary A. Furia, Rodee Hansen, Barbara Jo Kingsley, Julianna Kirk, Margaret Minardi, Carolyn Sheehan, Micki Sokol, Susan Tango, Michaelann Tostanoski, Constance

Bus Schedule Announced Recently, County Executive Bellone was joined by John Corrado, Tom Mcateer and Ray Grimaldi of Suffolk Transportation Service, Joe Delgado of Suffolk Independent Living Organization and Department of Public Works officials to announce the commencement of Sunday bus service on eight bus routes in Suffolk County beginning January 5th, 2014.

“Providing additional transportation opportunities for Suffolk County will give residents who are in need of transportation on Sundays the opportunity to shop, attend church services, and get to work without having to rely on family or friends or just not having the opportunity to travel on Sundays,” said County Executive Bellone.

“I would like thank Legislator Schneiderman for sponsoring this legislation and supporting transportation initiatives in the County as well the Welfare to Work Commission. We started with the East End, providing Sunday bus service on two routes and now we are rolling out service to eight additional bus routes.”

The expanded Sunday service will also be available for the Suffolk County

Accessible Transportation para-transit riders.

“We must do everything we can to improve our transit infrastructure and provide options for our residents to travel throughout Suffolk County, said County Executive Bellone. “Investments in our infrastructure serve as economic development initiatives which will help to grow our economy and provide for a sustainable economic future.”

“This expansion of service is the single largest increase in service in the history of Suffolk County Transit,” said John Corrado, President of Suffolk Transportation Services. “I am pleased to be a partner with Suffolk County and continue to look forward to opportunities where we can provide our riders with enhanced services and improved communications.

In addition to the expansion of Sunday bus service, Suffolk Bus is also providing written communications to the sight impaired by using braille communications and for those who are hearing impaired Suffolk Bus offers audio communication of materials disseminated.

“The Suffolk Independent Living Organization thanks County Executive Bellone,

Legislator Schneiderman and the Suffolk County legislature for brining Sunday bus service to Suffolk County,” said Joe Delgado, Executive Director of Suffolk Independent Living Organization.

“Sunday service will also help people with disabilities live independently and enjoy the opportunities our communities have to offer.”

The expanded bus routes include: · S1-Amityville to Huntington · S33-Amityville to Hauppauge · S40-Babylon to Patchogue · S41-East Northport to Bay Shore · S54-Patchouge to Huntington · S58-Huntington to Riverhead · S66-Patchouge to Riverhead · S92-Orient to East Hampton (already has Sunday bus but extending year round) · 3d- Brentwood to Stony Brook · 10c-East Hampton to Montauk (already has Sunday bus but extending year round) For more information on Suffolk Bus please log on to: http://sct-bus.org/ general.html.

Wain, Pamela Waldroup, Margaret Weissbach, Constance Sloggatt Wolf, Leonora Wolfeld, and Sylvia Wolff.

Gallery hours are: Mondays 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Tuesdays - Fridays 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Please note the Gallery will be closed between December 24th and January 1st, reopening on January 2nd.

Bethpage Federal Credit Union, New York State’s largest credit union, and the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation, are pleased to announce the United States Navy Blue Angels will headline the 11th Annual Bethpage Air Show at Jones Beach, taking place on Memorial Day Weekend, Saturday, May 24th, 2014 and Sunday, May 25th, 2014.

This will be the military jet team’s sixth appearance at the show.

Military performers confirmed to date include: United States Navy Blue

Angels and the United States Army Golden Knights Parachute Team.

A complete line-up for 2014 air show will be provided in the coming months.

“After the United States Air Force Thunderbirds were forced to cancel air show performances last year due to government sequester budget cuts, we couldn’t be more thrilled the Blue Angels have committed to perform at this year’s show. We welcome the team back to Long Island with great enthusiasm,” said George Gorman, Deputy Regional Director, New York State

Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation.

The Blue Angels’ last visit to the Bethpage Air Show took place in 2012 when over 400,000 spectators chose the air show as their Memorial Day holiday weekend destination.

“Memorial Day Weekend is an important time to honor the brave men and women of our country’s military,” said Linda Armyn, Senior Vice President of Corporate Strategy, Bethpage. “Our audience this year will certainly be grateful to have a returning military presence.”

The Art League of Long Island invites artists from the tri-state area to submit entries to the upcoming juried exhibition titled Landscapes: From Metropolis To Arcadia showing April 6th through May 11th, 2014.

This exhibition in the Common Thread series will concentrate on landscape imagery.

While usually thought of as representing natural scenery, the category may also embrace seascapes, cityscapes, garden scenes and woodlands, for example, and may be rendered both realistically or abstractly. What you

see and how you see and portray it is unrestricted, open to many forms of expression.

Original works in 2-D and 3-D in any medium (within certain size specifications), except for video and installation art, can be accommodated in the Art League’s spacious Jeanie Tengelsen Gallery.

Entries will be selected and judged by Jennifer McGregor, Director of Arts and Senior Curator at Wave Hill, a 28-acre public garden and cultural center in the Bronx, presenting artworks both in the galleries and on the grounds that engage

visitors in a dialogue with nature. From 1983 to 1990 Ms. McGregor was Director of the New York City Percent for Art Program, after which she has served as consultant on numerous public art projects and commissions. In this capacity she facilitated the start of the Public Art Network, a program of Americans for the Arts.

To obtain prospectus call 631.462.5400 or download at www.artleagueli.org.

Deadline to submit application is February 9th, 2014.

Ruminations In The Gallery Ruminations, a twoperson exhibition of paintings and mixed-media creations by Kristina Bloem and Frances Siegel will open at Suffolk County Community College’s Gallery West on February 13th, 2014 A Long Island native, Bloem studied fine art at Parsons School of Design and has been involved with many decorative painting projects, in addition to working on her own paintings. Bloem makes her home in Riverhead.

“Growing up with a graphic designer father, art was always a big part of my world,” Bloem said.

“Being an artist has meant different things to me at different times, but what I am sure of is that art is essential. To heal, to grow, to see anew. To live.

My goal is to create beauty and uplift the soul. I like obsessing over the details, creating a polished image by layering tones in an almost meditative fashion until I’m finally satisfied.

I’m just trying to find my way through life through the painted image. No matter how dark the days are, I can still paint beauty and joy to lift us up,” Bloem added.

Frances Siegel has shown her paintings,

drawings and mixed media works in galleries worldwide, and in museums such as: the Minnesota Museum of Art, the Albrecht Museum of Fine Art, the Flint Institute of Arts, the Dishman Art Museum, and the American Academy of Arts and Letters. Siegel is represented by the Prince Street Gallery in New York City where she has had several exhibitions. Siegel lives in New York City’s Westbeth, the Artists’ community and the Adirondack Mountains.

“During the many years that I worked with elementary-aged school children in a program I created and called ‘Our Place’, I had the daily opportunity to observe and support children fully engaged in what comes naturally to them: imaginative play,” Siegel said. “In turn, I found myself incorporating its principles into my artistic practice; exploring whatever materials around me can do, taking inspiration from impulses, body sensations, and dreams; and following the free play of hands that like to make shapes that together can then take me to never-before-seen destinations. Nothing is off limits - the only rules

are ones I might happen to make up -or change -along the way.”

Ruminations will open with a reception on Thursday, February 13th, 2014 at 3:30 p.m. when both artists will be present to discuss and answer questions about their work.

Ruminations will be on view from the reception on Thursday, February 13th through Friday, March 14th.

The Gallery West is located at Suffolk County Community College’s Michael J. Grant Campus Captree Commons, Crooked Hill Rd., Brentwood, NY. Gallery hours are: Monday – Thursday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Friday, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. For more information, call Gallery West at 631.851.6809 or the Student Activities Office at 631.851.6702.

Memorial Scholarship Established The friends and family of Emmy-winning CBS News Producer Michael Rosenbaum have established a memorial scholarship at the Stony Brook University School of Journalism in support of the Marie Colvin Center for International Reporting.

The $30,000 gift from the Michael S. Rosenbaum Foundation will be matched by a special grant from Jim and Marilyn Simon and the Simons Foundation, to establish a $60,000 endowed scholarship.

Michael Rosenbaum had an illustrious 27-year career at CBS, producing for CBS News, 60 Minutes and 60 Minutes II. He served as Tel Aviv bureau chief during the First Palestinian Intifada, collaborating with correspondents Dan Rather and Bob Simon.

His field producing

during the assassination of Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin in 1995 led to the Peabody award and two Emmy awards.

He died of a brain tumor in May of 2012. He was 64 years old.

“Our goal in creating the Michael S. Rosenbaum Foundation is to honor and continue Michael’s work with young correspondents, producers and writers,” said Michael’s sister, Judy Witt. “This scholarship will provide students with a unique opportunity through the Marie Colvin Center to do just that, for now and into the future.”

The scholarship will support student journalists who participate in the Marie Colvin Center’s “Journalism Without Walls” program, which takes undergraduates and graduates overseas to report, write and produce

print and multimedia journalism. The program has already sent student journalists to China, Russia, Cuba and Kenya. In January 2014, Journalism Without Walls heads to Istanbul, Turkey for a ten-day reporting trip.

“This scholarship was created to honor the memory, values, and ideals of Michael Rosenbaum, who believed deeply in an informed public and a free international press,” said Professor Ilana Ozernoy, Program Director for the Marie Colvin Center for International Reporting.

“This generous gift from the Rosenbaum Foundation will support young journalists who embody those ideals in pursuit of their career goals by helping to provide them with international field training.”

“We anticipate that

Michael’s legacy of producing journalism that made a difference will not only inspire those students who go overseas, but all of our journalism students,” said Howard Schneider, Dean of the Stony Brook School of Journalism.

“It has never been more important to have role models to inspire the next generation.”

Marie Colvin was a Long Island native and acclaimed war correspondent. She was tragically killed in Syria on February 22, 2012, while covering the conflict for The Sunday Times of London. She was known for her moving accounts of innocent civilians caught in the tide of war, and for her courage, tenacity and indefatigable commitment to ground reporting. She grew up in Oyster Bay, not far from Stony Brook University.

The Marie Colvin Center was established in 2012 to honor Marie Colvin’s legacy by training the next generation of international multimedia reporters, while fostering proactive and innovative solutions to meet the need for foreign news coverage.

The announcement of the Rosenbaum Scholarship comes in tandem with the expansion of the Marie Colvin Center Advisory Board to include Jon Williams, Managing Editor for International News at ABC News, and Ann Curry, National and International Correspondent/Anchor for NBC News. Other major donations to the Center include gifts

by News Corporation Chairman and CEO Rupert Murdoch and CNN International Correspondent Christiane

Amanpour.

To make a contribution to the Michael S. Rosenbaum scholarship, please send a check payable to The Stony Brook Foundation, indicating Michael S. Rosenbaum Scholarship in the memo field. Please mail to: Jennifer Carlino, Stony Brook University School of Journalism N4004 Melville Library Stony Brook, NY 11794-3384 For more information on the Marie Colvin Center for International Reporting, please visit www.mariecolvincenter. org.
