Michael is a recipient of the Brotherhood Sisterhood Award of NCCJ and with his wife, Leslie, the American Technion Society Albert Einstein Award for Community Service. Michael and Leslie are the proud parents of Matthew and Jason.
What Michael says about NCCJSTL: My involvement with the NCCJSTL stems from a long held belief that "no one is born a bigot," and an organization such as the NCCJSTL has one of the best chances, with its outstanding programs, to help in undoing the many prejudices and stereotypes learned at an early age. If everyone practiced what the NCCJSTL mission espouses, the world and especially St. Louis would certainly be a better place to live for all.
