About the Author

The son of a New York City police lieutenant, Rabbi Chaim Willis grew up in a liberal Jewish home. He received a BA in Chinese from the University of Michigan and then went on to pursue his interests in world affairs and journalism, travelling to India, Afghanistan, Cambodia, Vietnam, Indonesia, Iran, Syria, Jordan, and eventually Israel. While at the Western Wall he was offered an opportunity to meet a truly wise man, Rabbi Noach Weinberg. Impacted by Rabbi Weinberg's deep Jewish wisdom, Rabbi Willis chose to explore Jewish ideas at Aish Hatorah, delving into the original sources of both Jewish thought and practice. It was there that he became an Orthodox Jew, received rabbinical ordination, and joined Aish Hatorah's fight against the rise of assimilation in the Jewish world. In 1979 Rabbi Willis co-founded the first Aish Hatorah branch in the United States, in St. Louis, Missouri. He is currently the executive director of Aish South Africa in Johannesburg. Under his direction and leadership, thousands of young South African Jews have been inspired to explore and reconnect with their Jewishness and the Jewish people.
