Israel Elects Isaac Herzog as 11th President
As a teenager, Herzog attended Camp Ramah Palmer in Massachusetts. By Jan Jaben-Eilon June 3, 2021, 3:47 pm Edit
Isaac Herzog is described as a “mensch,” even as a teenager.
The president-elect of Israel, Isaac Herzog, is a known figure to many in the American Jewish community, including in Atlanta. He comes from a line of Israel leaders, including his father Chaim Herzog, the sixth president of the Jewish state and has visited Atlanta many times.
When asked for one word to describe the person who will fill the mostly ceremonial post in Israel as of July 9, Atlantan Jed Rosenfeld said “mensch.” Rosenfeld recalls the summer of 1976 when he, as a 20-year-old, attended Camp Ramah Palmer in Massachusetts, one of the oldest Ramah camps. He vividly recalls a couple of Israeli siblings who were campers.
