roots.
The youngest of eight

in upstate New York in a
devout Catholic family.
Though he'd hear the
word "Jewish" mentioned in
his home, he said Jews were
not a topic of discussion. "I
knew my parents were weird,
but I thought it was because
they were from Brooklyn,"
said Dubner to the more
CARLA JEAN
than 600 patrons.
SCHWARTZ
While living in New York
Local Columnist City, he discussed with a
friend how his parents were
born Jewish but converted to
Catholicism. Dubner then learned
that he was Jewish because of
Halacha (Jewish law). "It made me
curious about my family and about
myself," he said.
In an enlightening Woman's World
program, Dubner portrayed his own
religious journey from Catholicism
to Judaism, tracing his parents' con-
version.

Diane Wyner helped organize this
