January 9 | 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm  

Join Dr. Barbara Vinick for an interactive discussion of her book, 100 Jewish Brides: Stories from Around the World, co-edited with Dr. Shulamit Reinharz.  The book explores the experiences of diverse Jewish brides from around the world.  With stories from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe, this collection of personal testimonies will surprise and inspire.
