Larry King’s Good Will
He may be an award-winning journalist and host of one of the longest-running talk shows in television history, but Larry King is proving that he’s really just a nice Jewish boy from Brooklyn.
King will make an appearance as a guest on Chabad’s annual “To Life” telethon, airing live September 9. The show will help raise money to provide educational and social services for the needy. Past telethon participants have included such celebs as Bob Dylan, Whoopi Goldberg, Adam Sandler and Martin Sheen.
Hello, fellow Forward reader! I’m Joel Brown, a Forward reader and supporter for more than 15 years, and currently the chair of the board of directors.
I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.
The Forward is committed to bringing you unbiased, nuanced Jewish news. From my position as board chair, I see an exciting future as we expand our position as the definitive independent voice of contemporary American Judaism.
— Joel Brown, Forward board chair
