When Goldie Mabovitch was a young girl in 1903, she fled the pogroms in Ukraine for the US. In 1921, she moved to Palestine and joined a kibbutz. Soon, farmwork led to activism and politics. During and after World War II, Golda worked to create a safe haven for hundreds of thousands of Jewish refugees who survived the Holocaust. On May 14, 1948, when Israel was recognized by the U.N., Golda said to the crowd that had gathered, "The partition plan is a compromise; not what you wanted, not what we wanted. But now let us live in peace together."
Introduce readers (12 and up) to Golda Meir and 35 other groundbreaking Jewish women—and the extraordinary history and circumstances that shaped them all.

When I wrote "Nice" Jewish Girls, I chose an adjective as chapter title for each of the extraordinary 36 women in the book. For Dianne Feinstein, that word was "tireless." Her impressive accomplishments (first Jewish woman in the Senate, first woman to chair the Select Committee on Intelligence, passing the 1994 assault weapons ban, working TIRELESSLY to protect immigrants, women, and children...) were more recently overshadowed by the fact that she ran for a sixth term at age 85, when many thought it was time to pass the baton. A notorious workaholic, she felt compelled to serve until she couldn't— and so she did.

Young Frank Lloyd Wright spent his summers exploring and working on the family farm. His favorite childhood toy was something called The Froebel Gifts, an educational set packed with wooden blocks and cardboard tiles in different shapes that his mother picked up at the 1876 World's Fair. Years later, Wright changed the way we think about architecture.

Before she was responsible for saving the US economy from bankers who thought they were too cool for regulation, Janet Yellen would sit on the stoop of her brownstone in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn and watch the dockworkers who came to her father, a doctor, whose office was on the ground floor of their home. She noticed that although these patients were hardworking, they often could not afford to pay for medical care. Even as a young teenager, she recognized that the economy didn't work for everyone—and fixing that became her life's work. Learn more about Janet Yellen and other bold, brilliant women in "Nice" Jewish Girls.
