Join us for a special program with historian and author Steven Ossad, who will speak about his powerful new book, Chasing the Shadow, the definitive biography of Mickey “David” Marcus—an American Jew, U.S. Army colonel, and the first general of the Israel Defense Forces.
Marcus’s extraordinary life bridges American Jewish history, World War II, and Israel’s War of Independence. Ossad explores Marcus’s deep sense of Jewish responsibility, moral courage, and the challenges he faced helping shape the future of the Jewish state.
