Timely Topics on Zoom: Not Our Kind

Thursday, May 6. 1:00 pm
Free Event

Non-NCJW BCS members register here

Zoom information will be sent the day before the event.

Kitty Zeldis will discuss her book Not Our Kind, a gripping and entertaining story of two women dealing with privilege, sexism and anti-Semitism in post-war NYC.  The book, a page turner, is available in print, Kindle, and audio versions at Amazon and at Bergen County libraries.  Reading the book in advance will enhance your experience.  As a nice touch, for those who purchase the book, Bergen County Section will arrange for a personalized inscribed book plate to be mailed to them.

Kitty will divulge several surprises: how she became Kitty and an extremely interesting story about her mother.  You will not want to miss this program!  Hope to “see” you there.  For more information, contact Paula Schwartz at pkschwartz39@gmail.com.
