Author and visual artist Riva Lehrer discusses her new memoir “Golem Girl” and her search for a livable, subversive identity in a society afraid of strange bodies. As Riva immerses herself in Disability Culture, she becomes an innovative painter whose work honors the beauty of all kinds, with her extraordinary portraits interspersed throughout the narrative. Moderated by writer Judy Bolton-Fasman and Boston ReelAbilities Director Katka Reszke. 

This discussion originally aired on May 6, 2021, as part of the 10th annual ReelAbilities Film Festival, presented by Boston Jewish Film.
