Roy & Leah Neuberger - From Central Park to Sinai

Author: Meaningful Minute November 13, 2021 Duration: 1:12:57

Roy S. Neuberger has had an improbable, event-filled life. He has been a National Park Service Ranger and Fire Lookout, a New York City official, a journalist and newspaper publisher, a yeshiva administrator, a hedge-fund operator and also an author and speaker.

He was raised on Manhattan's Fifth Avenue in an affluent family with no connection to its Jewish background. The story of his spiritual journey is detailed in his best-selling book, From Central Park to Sinai: How I Found My Jewish Soul.

Roy met his wife, the former Linda Villency, in high school. She is his editor and speaking partner. They have children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren in the U. S. and Israel.

Their story of how they found Hashem is beautiful.
