Several weeks ago "Tell Me
Why" challenged readers to
identiy 20 figures from the Jew-
ish past and present. Congratu-
lations to Randy Farb of Hint
and Audra Lachman of Farming-
ton Hills, who identified each
and every one. So who are the
elusive 20, you're asking?

Sally Priesand (1946-) was the

first woman to be ordained a
rabbi in 1972. A graduate of
Hebrew Union College-Jewish
Institute of Religion, Rabbi Priesand

I received Reform ordination 50
years after the Central Conference
of American Rabbis asserted,
"Women cannot justly be denied
the privilege of ordination."

London, is the father of the

Lisa Loeb (1968-) is a rock
musician whose glasses harken
back to the 1950s. (Why does
