Illumination: Lighting the Way with Fiction – Dr. Richard Lazaroff, Author and Retired Pediatrician

Dr. Richard Lazaroff – a St. Louis Jewish Book Festival author – is a retired St. Louis-area pediatrician who published his second book, Illumination, earlier this year. His fictional account of four generations of Jews shines a bright light on immigration and the subsequent challenges faced by many American Jewish families, including secular assimilation and success, overt and covert antisemitism, and spiritual grounding in today’s hyper-connected world.
