Abstract
Włodek Roman, Joseph Green, producent polskich filmów jidyszowych [Joseph Green, producer of Polish Yiddish-language films]. „Images” vol. XXVI, no 35. Poznań 2019. Adam Mickiewicz University Press. Pp. 77–101. ISSN 1731-450X. DOI 10.14746/i.2019.35.04.
 Joseph Green (1900–1996), born Josef Chaim Grinberg in Łódź, was one of the most important producers of films in Yiddish. At the beginning of the sound era in the United States, he worked on dubbing in Yiddish for Jewish films, including Joseph in the Land of Egypt. He received a copy of the film as a royalty, which he then used with great success. The money helped him produce four Jewish films in Poland between 1936 and 1938: Yiddle with His Fiddle, The Jester, Little Mother and A Letter to Mother. Green left Poland in the spring of 1939. When the world of Shtetls – evoked by him – disappeared as a result of the Second World War, he ceased making films.

Summary
Londyńskie spektakle Wilnian podziwiał Harry omashefsky, który prowadził w Nowym Jorku (wraz z ojcem Borysem i Williamem Rollandem) omashefsky Broadway Yiddish eatre ( th Street, West Broadway), i zaprosił ich na występy. Drugiego stycznia roku Grinberg wraz z kolegami z zespołu: Jakobem Bleiferem, Mosesem Federem, Matusem Kowalskim, Jakobem Lubockim i Chaimem Szneurem wypłynął z Southampton statkiem „Majestic”. Stycznia, zespół rozpoczął występy pokazem Dybuka, w którym Grinberg grał Menaszego i Henocha; w lutym wystawiono Zielone pola (Grine felder) Hirszbejna. Po roku przeszedł do zespołu Rudolpha Schildkrauta, którego mógł podziwiać w Berlinie, a zetknął się z nim zapewne w zespole omashefsky’ego, i w lutym roku grał w jego teatrze (Schildkraut eatre) w Bronksie w Joszke muzykant (Joszke musikant) Osipa Dymowa
