I am a Professor and Director of Jewish Studies at Hunter College, City University of New York. I have published five books in Jewish studies and have won and was shortlisted for numerous literary prizes. My new book, X Troop: The Secret Jewish Commandos of World War Two, has been featured on CNN, Time Magazine, the Washington Post, the Guardian, CSPAN and a range of other venues. The Daily Telegraph called it "A thrilling story, well-told" while the Times of London labelled it as "gripping" and The Jerusalem Report called it "stunning...an incredible moving story of Jewish heroism." X Troop is being translated into Hebrew, Polish and Russian. Young Lions: How Jewish Writers Reinvented the American War Novel - which won this year's Jordan Schnitzer book award and was shortlisted for the National Jewish Book Award.
