Life story video of 102-year-old Beachwood man tells of Cleveland life in 1910s and 20s

102-year-old Beachwood man tells story of early life in 1920s Cleveland to Sunrise Sunset Documentaries.

Ruby Levine has seen a Cleveland with horse-drawn wagons, tough early years in a home with no electricity and an outhouse and leaving school in the afternoon to work and help support his family. The son of Polish-Jewish immigrants built a life where he played sports at Glenville High, married a beauty he met at a wedding he crashed with a friend, went on to start a vending machine company, and even entertained Frank Sinatra and Joel Grey. He told his life story to Natalie Bauman, owner of Sunrise Sunset Documentaries, a Cleveland-based personal documentary production company.

This should be a great evening. Steve Berry, is one of the greatest authors of my decade along withRead More James Patterson. They both have done their homework in research and story-telling. I would love to listen to him, however, I will not be in the area that week. It would be wonderful if he were invited to the Heights area, either Legacy, Beachwood, Cleveland Hts., because he would bring down the house with fans. Thank you, again. Love his tales.
