Episode 4: This Woman Is Fighting To Keep Women’s Pictures In Orthodox Media

This week on The Chutzpah Podcast we welcome guest Ann Koffsky, a children’s book illustrator and author who became a defender of keeping women’s images in Orthodox Jewish media. In recent years, the practice among many Orthodox publications of blurring, editing or completely removing images of women and girls has come to the fore. Koffsky decries the trend, and battles to preserve an Orthodox Judaism she loves as part of the #FrumWomenHaveFaces fight. We also discuss Koffsky’s pro-vaccine children’s book, “Judah Maccabee Goes To the Doctor.” Listen to the episode on itunes or Soundcloud, and subscribe to know when the new episode drops.
