Subject: Jewish Business Association - The Israeli Ambassador at Northwestern



Dear JBAs,

 

A special announcement - 

 

Michael Oren was appointed Israel's Ambassador to the United States in May 2009 after a distinguished academic career. A graduate of Princeton and Columbia, Dr. Oren has received fellowships from the U.S. Departments of State and Defense, and from the British and Canadian governments. Formerly, he was the Lady Davis Fellow of Hebrew University, a Moshe Dayan Fellow at Tel-Aviv University, and the Distinguished Fellow at the Shalem Center in Jerusalem. He has been a visiting professor at Harvard, Yale, and Georgetown.

Ambassador Oren has written extensively for The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, and The New Republic, where he was a contributing editor. His two most recent books, Six Days of War: June 1967 and the Making of the Modern Middle East and Power, Faith, and Fantasy: America in the Middle East, 1776 to the Present, were both New York Times bestsellers. They won the Los Angeles Times' History Book of the Year prize, a National Council of the Humanities Award, and the National Jewish Book Award.

And....

Don't forget to put on your calendars our Kick-Off get together - Free Mediterranean food, free wine, and a fabulous company. Can you ask for more?!
