Lori Prashker-Thomas is a Jewish birth mother who up until recently never discussed her story of placing a child for adoption because of the stigma attached to the subject within the Jewish community. She is now an advocate for Jewish women, both as a speaker and a writer. Lori is also owner of and officiant at Ceremonies by Lori, and is co-owner of ShadowCatcher Photography with her husband, Michael. Her book, “From Mistakes to Miracles ~ Jewish Adoption From A Jewish Birth Mother’s Point of View,” will be released in mid-November.
