National Jewish Center for Learning and Leadership, they maintained a close, per-
sonal relationship with CLAts founder, Rabbi Irving ("Yitz") Greenberg and with the
famed Talmud commentator, Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz.
A community leader in her own right, Beverly Baker is a Life Member of the
National Council of Jewish Women, a past Presidium-Member of the Brandeis
University National Women's Committee, a former Board member of the Women's
Division of the Jewish Federation of Greater Detroit and a board-member of Metro
