Radio Personality Jimmy Fink and Baker Seth Greenberg at the Scarsdale Adult School

Jimmy Fink of 107.1 The Peak will present a retrospective called On the Radio: Then and Now, on Tuesday March 29 from 7 - 9 pm at Scarsdale High School. During the past 40 years, the music and radio industries have changed dramatically –– from vinyl to CD and AM/FM to Satellite. Fink’s 40+ year career in New York radio offers unique insights. He will focus on the changes in the medium from 1970 to the present, describe his first work in college radio (at American University in Washington D.C.), and the highlights of his interviews with many entertainment personalities, including Paul McCartney, Billy Joel, Chevy Chase, Elton John, David Bowie, members of The Who, Queen and U2, all of which will include a slide show of rare images. Fink will also offer his perspective on the current state of music, the many ways people listen to it, and what this may mean for the future of radio.

Jimmy Fink has worked for WXPK-FM, 107.1 The Peak since its inception in 2004. Earlier, he worked for WPLJ and K-Rock in the New York area and also for ABC, NBC, Infinity Broadcasting, as well as HBO, Cinemax, and various TV and radio syndication companies and networks. The cost for the session is $25.

Famed baker, Seth Greenberg of Seth Greenberg’s Just Desserts in Westchester is back in the Scarsdale Adult School kitchen offering his best kept secrets in a series of specially designed classes. Greenberg’s classes will incorporate both interactive participation and demonstrations. He will be making everything from a basic cream cheese dough (for rugelach, turnovers and cheese straws) to free form fruit tarts and chocolate layer cake to pastry bag spritz cookies. Other classes will include pinwheel biscuits topped with fruit cobbler and his family’s world famous schnecken sticky buns. More advanced students will enjoy a session on using yeast, a class on preparing a poached apricot and frangipane tart and another session on baking a chocolate sponge roll with fudge glaze.

Greenberg is the son of New York’s celebrated baker, William Greenberg, Jr., with whom he worked for over 25 years. He has created these programs exclusively for the SAS. Enrollment limited to 12 students in each section. Classes are held in three part sessions on Wednesdays (both in the morning and evening) at his home in West Harrison and the cost is $210 per three-class session.
