activist Elsie Frank, mother of openly
gay Congressman Barney Frank.
Dr. Rachel Birtha Eitches, an
African-American Jewish convert; Dr.
Marjorie Cramer, an Irish-Catholic-
born plastic surgeon who converted to
Judaism and practices as a mohel;
choreographer Liz Lerman, currently
in the midst of a residency program at
the University of Michigan; Dr.
Roslayn Sussman Yalow, the first
American woman trained in physics to
win a Nobel Prize; and cookbook
author Joan Nathan also appear.
"We wanted a cross section of
Jewish women with strong Jewish val-
ues," says Wolfson, who interviewed
television star Shari Lewis before her
death from lung cancer. "She talked
about people coming up to her and
thanking her for the wonderful
Christian values she [instilled],"
Wolfson recalls. But Lewis replied that
they were Jewish values, too, notes
Wolfson.
One of the writer's most emotional
interviews was with Dr. Carolyn
Goodman, mother of Andrew
Goodman, the slain civil rights worker.
"Meeting her was a very powerful
experience," says Wolfson. "She has
spent her whole life dedicating her
efforts to the legacy of youth activism
in America."
Photographer Lloyd Wolf, a
Conservative Jew who, like Wolfson,
resides in Arlington, Va., also found
meeting Goodman to be an emotional
experience. "I photographed her twice
and took her to the gravesite where her

son is buried," he says. "There was a
bond of trust between us that occurred
at that time and I won't ever forget it."
Wolf says several of the women
touched him deeply. "Photographing
Sue Willis, the woman who won a reli-
gious harassment suit in Alabama, had
a terrific impact," he says. "Her story
was very moving and sad. Her children
suffered terrible antisemitism."
Both Wolfson and Wolf hope their
book will appeal to an audience
beyond Jewish readers. "I hope it's read
by all Americans," says Wolfson. "I
want people to learn that many of the
struggles faced by Jewish women are
the same struggles that other mothers
face. I also want them to appreciate the
beauty and joy of Jewish tradition." El

In conjunction with the publi-
cation of Jewish Mothers, Lloyd
Wolf's photographs are on dis-
play at the B'nai B'rith
Klutznick National Jewish
Museum, 1640 Rhode Island,
Washington, D.C., through
Sept. 11. For more informa-
tion, call (202) 857-6583.
