Passing of William Laderberg

Longtime Naro friend and supporter William Laderberg passed this week. William worked for years as a manager of Naro Video and on Sunday mornings he enjoyed his role as one of the Film Forum hosts at Naro Cinema. He had an encyclopedic knowledge of European art films and American independents along with the filmmakers and creative talent. He saw far more movies and platform TV series than anyone else that we know. And he had a passion for the music of obscure jazz artists. He generously shared his knowledge and opinions with most anyone who would engage in conversation. William was an integral part of the film community on Colley Ave. during the hey-day of art cinema and video rental stores. Read William’s full obituary here.
