My particular crowd happened to be mostly Jewish??my attendance at more than my share of bar and bat mitzvahs, deep love of Challah and inadvertently acquired knowledge of Hebrew prayer tunes eventually earned me the title of “honorary Jew.” I also sang in an Episcopalian church choir for ten years, a fact made even stranger by the fact that I was, officially, a temple...
