I loved this interview. I have long admired Avital writing, and I was intrigued to read about the new shul too.

She is formidable. It was a real treat...I didn't know about the event. Now, I'm hoping to do these kinds of things more often (like Literary Modi'in! :)

Which others have you read?

The Steinem one and I might have read the Carly Simon one but definitely another about her relationship with Jackie Kennedy. I saw her live at a book signing. Have had a handful of encounters with Carly. Someday we’ll talk about them
