Veteran journalist and author David Eden will visit to discuss his new memoir, My Pashtun Rabbi.
A narrative of identity, religion, brotherhood, renewal, and trust, David Eden's My Pashtun Rabbi is an eye-opening tale of his life-changing experience as a middle-aged American Jew and journalist who embarks on a journey of faith and redemption that lands him in Al Ain, an ancient inland oasis city in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi. The memoir is a timely, in-depth look at a little-known corner of the oil-rich Arab Muslim world through a totally different lens, more human than political – and more about the potential of tomorrow, rather than the turmoil of today.
Eden, a veteran journalist, was an Emmy Award-winning Managing Editor and Executive Producer at Cleveland's CBS TV station and the former Editor-in-Chief of the Cleveland Free Times. He has worked as a top-level editor, columnist, and critic for the Dallas Times Herald, Detroit News, The Minneapolis Star, Cleveland Plain Dealer, and Albuquerque Journal. His work has appeared in The New York Times, The Hill, Jerusalem Post, and The Times of Israel, among others.
