I hosted the first of my European book launches at the Irish Jewish Museum at Walworth Road on February 22, 2026. The presentation offered a vivid glimpse into The Outsiders Who Built Irish Entertainment, tracing the extraordinary journey of Maurice and Louis Elliman—from immigrant beginnings to becoming the driving force behind Ireland’s cinemas, theatres, and cultural life. Drawing on rare photographs, archival material, and family history, the talk highlighted how the Ellimans shaped Irish entertainment for more than half a century.
