Award-Winning Filmmaker Coming To Cleveland

BEACHWOOD, OH — Award-winning movie producer Howard Rosenman will take part in an upcoming celebration of LGBTQ history in Cleveland this month. The event will take place in Gordon Square. Tickets are $15 for general admission.

Rosenman will talk about his journey to becoming an advocate for LGBTQ voices. Raised in a Hasidic Jewish home in New York, Rosenman rose through the film industry and has become a powerful supporter of LGBTQ rights. Much of his career was influenced by a chance meeting with composer Leonard Bernstein.

The evening's talk will be hosted in the LGBT Community Center of Greater Cleveland, 6600 Detroit Avenue. This will be one of the first major events to be hosted in the group's new building.

“We are very excited to partner with the Maltz Museum to host Howard Rosenman. We couldn’t be more pleased that this event is taking place during LGBTQ History month in our beautiful new community center," said Executive Director Phyllis Harris.

Tickets can be purchased through the Maltz Museum by calling 216-593-0575.

Rosenman has helped created more than 40 movies, including films that won Academy Awards, Peabody Awards, and were recognized at Sundance, Berlin and Cannes Film Festivals. He is perhaps best known for "Call Me By Your Name," which won an Oscar for best adapted screenplay. He also helped produce "Father of the Bride," "Family Man," "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," and more.
