With her love of adventure and fearlessness, Ruth Gruber defied tradition from the moment she became the world’s youngest PhD at the age of 20 in 1931. Ahead of Time tells the remarkable journey of 96-year-old Gruber, who continued to make history throughout her trail-blazing career by becoming the first journalist to enter the Soviet Arctic in 1935, and escorting 1000 Holocaust refugees from Naples to New York in a secret wartime mission in 1944. Q&A to follow with executive producer Patti Kenner.
