Setup
Almost everyone knows America’s most famous sex therapist, Dr. Ruth Westheimer, now past 90. With her diminutive frame, thick German accent, and uninhibited approach to sex education, Dr. Ruth has transformed both public and private conversations around sexuality.

Following a film screening about her life, a panel discussion will feature Dr. Ruth talking about her unlikely path to a career at the forefront of the sexual revolution.
