Their own private collection of contemporary art, which they generously lend out to museums around the world, is one of the best anywhere.  The Broads spend tens, perhaps hundreds, of millions of dollars a year in pursuit of this passion.

Too bad, too!

It boggles the mind to contemplate all the good they could do the Jewish community -- their community --  if they'd leave it to others from this point forward to support the arts and instead concentrate their donations on Jewish Day Schools, Jewish charities and support of Israel.

I have written a memo to Eli and Edythe on my blog at the Jewish Journal of Los Angeles that spells out my full reasoning.  I hope you'll click over to it.  It's worth reading and emailing to friends and family who agree.
