I'm doing a Kaplun Essay, (for school, grr), and we HAVE to do it for my English class, it counts as a grade. The topic of the essay is, "What Person of Importance to the Jewish People, Past or Present, Would You Like to Meet and Why?"- bunch of bolonia.
Anyways I got Harry Houdini, any help?

Change your person to Jonah Salk-discovered the polio vaccine, and saved millions of lives.

No Way! They may be complex/dangerous but so were Harry Houdini's tricks at that time. Chris Angel has backup and emergency crews standing by. Harry Houdini had NOTHING but himself to depend on.

a public figure, someone who is doing well and liked, a celebrity who will bestow a positive image for all jews. certainly in times when jews were not well known or disliked.
