Philip Bibel was born 1909 in Shebreshin (Szczebrzeszyn), a Jewish shtetl in Poland. In Tales of the Shtetl he recreates the vibrant life and culture of a society that, tragically, exists now only in memory. Bibel is also the author of Shafts of Light and Embers and Fireflies.
Philip Bibel died October 5, 2006.

I know so many talented artists that I decided they deserve their own place on this site. A place they can showcase their work and share it.
