In this scene Ruth Gruber reflects upon the awesome responsibility given to her by her boss Harold Ickes, Secretary of The Interior. She has to look after the 1000 refugees put in her care, and get them safely to America. Stephanie J. Block is Ruth Gruber. HAVEN also starred Mark Edgar Stephens & Richard Gould. Book by Jerome Coopersmith, Lyrics by Joe Darion, Music by William Goldstein. Produced by Robert S. Block.
Haven is Ruth Gruber's remarkable true story of the rescue of 1,000 souls from the nightmare of war-torn Europe... and her fight to keep them in America. This musical drama touches on some of the most difficult issues that the "civilized" world has ever faced --- and still faces.
HAVEN is freedom's inspiring triumph over prejudice and bigotry. An American story that reminds us that "Freedom isn't free.
