Sarah Marx is blessed to live in Jerusalem, where she tries and often fails to do things in two languages. A graduate of St. John's College in Annapolis, she recently finished a stint as a madricha and educator at Hevruta, and plans to continue learning, teaching, and writing until someone tells her to stop. Her outlook on the world has mostly been shaped by Torah, Russian novels, long bus trips, and many years' worth of gas-station coffee.
