History Biographical
Judy King is the granddaughter of Reuben Brainin and daughter of Dr. Ortenberg, a close friend and mentor of his medical school classmate Eric Lennard Bernstein, who later took the name Eric Berne. Eric Berne was the originator of "transactional analysis" and wrote Games People Play. Judy King, a sculptor, knew most of Montreal's Jewish artists and therefore was able to interview these four in depth. The interviews were for an intended publication, which was not carried out.
