Rav Mordechai Pinchas Teitz, entitled Learn Torah,
Love Torah, Live Torah (KTAV, 2001). Her book is at
once a vibrant history of Jewish life in the 20th
century and an argument for Rav Teitz’s approach:
make Torah knowledge accessible to everyone; enjoy
within a Torah framework all that is positive in modern
life.

Literature at Columbia University on Psalms in English
poetry. She has taught Jewish Studies and humanities
in high school and college, and has served as principal

for the Jewish community.
