On Sunday, February 12, at 8 p.m., Cong. Rinat Yisrael Adult Education presents Tuvia Tenenbom, acclaimed international author and social commentator, discussing “Catching the Jew—Here Too: Anti-Semitism and Anti-Zionism in Israel and the U.S.”

Tenenbom, the author of three Der Spiegel bestsellers, is a journalist, dramatist and the founder of the Jewish Theater of New York. Tuvia studied for his doctorate in English literature at St. John’s University, earned his MFA in playwriting at CUNY-Brooklyn, BS in mathematics and computer science at Touro, and finished his rabbinical studies in Jerusalem. He also studied Christianity and Islam in Israel and New York as well as journalism, acting, theater and finance (at NYU). Germany’s prestigious newspaper Die Zeit named Tuvia Tenenbom and Prof. Harold Bloom “the best minds” in America. He is the author of “I Sleep in Hitler’s Room, Catch the Jew!” and “The Lies They Tell.”

The event will feature the reading of excerpts from the author’s book, remarks by the author about the experiences on which his newest book is based, as well as a Q&A session. Light refreshments will be served. The author’s books, including his new book “The Lies They Tell,” will be available for purchase at the event.
