In this episode, we sit down with three-time Emmy Award–winning journalist Dana Arschin for a conversation about legacy, responsibility, and the moment when reporting becomes personal. In dialogue with Rabbi David Ingber, Arschin traces her path from a childhood on Long Island to a distinguished career in broadcast journalism at News 12 and FOX 5 News, where her on-air reporting and documentary work earned wide recognition. She reflects on the turning point that reshaped her professional and personal trajectory: becoming the first-ever Storyteller at the Holocaust Memorial and Tolerance Center of Nassau County. Arschin shares her commitment to preserving the story of her grandfather, an Auschwitz survivor, and to carrying forward the voices of other survivors. Moving between journalism and memory, this conversation explores what it means to transform inherited history into living purpose – and how storytelling can become both vocation and sacred responsibility.
