Dani Steiner, an accomplished and widely admired Israeli educator, has done research on these emissaries, discovering fascinating stories. He shares some of them with us in this conversation.
That was a lot of fun! I used to read the histories of most of the people you mentioned, as a Boomer dreaming about Israel (but life intervened). My grandparents in the '20's and '30's were very poor, in Chicago. But their evenings were taken up with raising money for Israel, Workmen's Circle, and lots of lectures. Thank you.
