Description: Timeless Travels by Joe Rotenberg Who is todays American Jew? these tales inform and entertain by uncovering little-known events and personalities that have impacted the American Jewish world. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Who is todays American Jew? Joseph Rotenberg styles himself as a modern-day maggid (traditional Jewish storyteller), weaving tales from the everyday to the fantastic, each one bringing the reader a slice of the American Jewish experience. Just as Sholem Aleichem did over a hundred years ago in his famous stories describing Russian Jewish life, these tales inform and entertain by uncovering little-known events and personalities that have impacted the American Jewish world. In the 1950s, the late Harry Golden, in his popular collections Only in America and For Two Cents Plain, introduced Jewish culture to many non-Jewish Americans. Joseph Rotenbergs work updates that vision to depict the contemporary, modern American Jew who is today increasingly as much at home in the halls of the Ivy League, the corridors of power in Washington, the corporate boardroom, and the theater as he is in the beit midrash and the synagogue. Laugh, cry, and wonder through Joseph Rotenbergs incisive and at times laugh-out-loud funny collection of tales. Author Biography Joseph Rotenberg was born in New York City in 1949 and grew up on the Upper West Side with his Antwerp-born father and Brooklyn-born mother. He received his BA (cum laude, phi beta kappa) from Columbia College and two law degrees from New York University Law School.

He is currently a senior vice president with Morgan Stanley in Paramus, New Jersey. He has five children and nine grandchildren.
