I am a Yiddish enthusiast living in Chapel Hill, North Carolina and have been writing books and recording cds since the 1980s. In the last few years I have translated three novels by the once-famous Yiddish novelist Jacob Dineson as well as many articles and, of course, songs. I gave a lecture/concert on my research at the Library of Congress in 2014 and at the American Jewish Library Jubilee in 2015. I won the grand prize in the second annual Der Yidisher Idol Yiddish song writing and performance competition in Mexico City.
I perform with the world music ensemble Mappamundi at concerts, workshops, festivals, and weddings. We're always looking for new places to present this wonderful music. See Cabaret Warsaw for information on our Yiddish (and Polish-Jewish) theater music performances.
To bring things back from the brink of extinction is my vocation. I have two donkeys, a flock of chickens, two children, one grandson, and a grand-dog.
