In 1953 he received a contract to
teach at the Chamber Theater
School in Tel Aviv. But when he
arrived in Israel, the school had
been closed and the job was non-
existent. Before he was able to re-
turn to the U.S., however, he was
offered the opportunity to direct
one of the Chamber Theater pro-

Israeli theater, not only with the
Chamber Company, but with the
renowned Habima Theater in Tel
