An Evening to Discuss As a Jew Featuring Sarah Hurwitz in Conversation

Join Rabbi Siegel as he speaks with Sarah Hurwitz on her new book in which she wrestles with what it means to be Jewish at a time of rising antisemitism.  Following the program there will be a dessert reception with a book purchasing and signing opportunity.

Sarah Hurwitz:
Sarah Hurwitz was a White House speechwriter from 2009 to 2017, starting out as a senior speechwriter for President Barack Obama and then serving as chief speechwriter for First Lady Michelle Obama. Sarah worked with Mrs. Obama to craft widely-acclaimed addresses—including her 2008, 2012, and 2016 Democratic National Convention speeches—and traveled with the First Lady across America and to five continents. Sarah is also the author of Here All Along: Finding Meaning, Spirituality, and a Deeper Connection to Life—in Judaism (After Finally Choosing to Look There), which was a finalist for two National Jewish Book Awards and for the Sami Rohr Prize for Jewish Literature.
