Please join us for a special evening, Tuesday, October 29, at 7:30 pm for a very special evening in conversation with Israeli Journalist Lee Yaron regarding her book, 10/7: The Human Story. The defin­i­tive account of the 10/7 mas­sacre through the sto­ries of its vic­tims and the com­mu­ni­ties they called home.

A mas­ter­ful work of inves­tiga­tive jour­nal­ism by acclaimed Haaretz reporter Lee Yaron, 10/7 chron­i­cles the mas­sacre that ignit­ed a war through the sto­ries of more than 100 civil­ians. These sto­ries are the prod­ucts of exten­sive inter­views with sur­vivors, the bereaved, and first respon­ders in Israel and beyond. The vic­tims run the gamut from left-wing kib­butzniks and Burn­ing Man-esque partiers to rad­i­cal right-wingers, from Bedouins and Israeli Arabs to Thai and Nepalese guest work­ers, peace activists, elder­ly Holo­caust sur­vivors, refugees from Ukraine and Rus­sia, preg­nant women, and babies.

Lee Yaron has been a jour­nal­ist with Haaretz, Israel’s old­est and most award-win­ning news­pa­per, for near­ly a decade. Her inves­tiga­tive report­ing has result­ed in the found­ing of state-lev­el com­mis­sions and the chang­ing of sub­stan­tial bod­ies of Israeli pol­i­cy and law. She is an elect­ed mem­ber-rep­re­sen­ta­tive of the Exec­u­tive Com­mit­tee of the Union of Israeli Jour­nal­ists. She has also writ­ten and direct­ed acclaimed the­ater pro­duc­tions notable for their use of found mate­ri­als, includ­ing offi­cial gov­ern­men­tal texts, to bring atten­tion to mar­gin­al­ized com­mu­ni­ties both in Israel and through­out the Mid­dle East. Born in Tel Aviv, Yaron splits her time between her native city and New York.
