By Heidi Krizer Daroff

Israel Forever's North America Director, Heidi Krizer Daroff, recently sat down with Jerry Klinger to hear about his effort to secure the memory of the passengers on the Exodus as we approach the 70th anniversary of the ship’s fateful voyage. As the founder of the Jewish American Society for Historic Preservation Jerry has been committed to preserving Jewish memory where the need arises.

Listen as Jerry tells the story of the struggle of the hundreds of men, women, and children, many of whom were survivors of the Holocaust as they valiantly tried to reach the land of Israel and make a home for themselves.
