From the biblical story of Ruth to the star conversion of Elizabeth
Taylor, Converts to Judaism tells the stories of people who have
converted to Judaism throughout history. The book introduces
readers to origins of Judaism and shares the first conversion
stories of the people who helped the early Jewish faith grow.
Subsequent chapters trace the trajectory of Judaism through the
ages while highlighting the stories of converts-both well-known and
lesser-known-and how they shaped the tradition. The book includes
not only the story of Warder Cresson, who was put on trial for
insanity after converting to Judaism, but also famous celebrities
who became Jewish such as Marilyn Monroe and Sammy Davis, Jr.
Written by a noted expert on the conversion process, Converts to
Judaism serves as a unique resource to people considering the
challenging path of conversion and an illustration of the
important, and sometimes surprising, role Jewish converts have
always played in Jewish life.
