Aunt to discuss her book about 3-year-old taken hostage October 7
Liz Hirsh Naftali, the author of “Saving Abigail: The True Story of the Abduction and Rescue of a Three-Year-Old Hostage,” also the great-aunt of the subject, discusses her book for a Long Learning Program at the JCC MetroWest in West Orange. It’s on Wednesday, March 4, at 1 p.m., in Tepper Hall.
“Saving Abigail” is a true story of a little girl taken hostage by Hamas the morning of October 7, 2023. With no road map for how to save a hostage, Abigail’s great-aunt, Liz Hirsh Naftali, undertook an international effort to share her niece’s face and story with United States and world leaders.
Ms. Naftali is also a humanitarian ambassador and businesswoman. Her life’s work reflects a commitment to justice, humanity and building connections across borders.
The program is free for JCC members; $15 for guests. Books will be available to purchase; and the author will sign them.
