Barbara Pollak: Hello, name is Barbara Pollak. It's not "Pollock," or "Polluck." You can remember Pollak because it rhymes with colic. Colic is something babies get, where they can't stop crying, they're very uncomfortable. They cry, and they scream, sometimes for hours. That's kind of how I feel when my name is mispronounced.
