Roberta Marcus Leiner on Rabbi Marcus

Roberta Marcus Leiner, LMSW, is the daughter of Rabbi Robert Marcus, whose heroic story during and following the Holocaust is written about in the book, Einstein and the Rabbi: Searching for the Soul, by the bestselling author and rabbi, Naomi Levy.  (You can hear Levy's interview on this program on the podcast from April 8, 2018.)  Roberta Leiner is currently the Chief of Population and Community Health Planning at Hudson River Healthcare and she worked for many years as Senior VP of Agency Relations and Managing Director of Caring Commission for the UJA Federation of New York, the world's largest local philanthropic organization.  

Roberta, who was born two months following the passing of Rabbi Marcus, will join us from NY to talk about living with the legacy of her larger-than-life father and how it has driven her own life, including her focus on making sure that no one feels that they are on the outside looking in, but that we are all fully embraced by a caring and compassionate community!
