About
Delia Ephron had struggled through several years of heartbreak. She’d lost her sister, Nora, and then her husband, Jerry, both to cancer. But then she caught the attention of Peter, a Bay Area psychiatrist after she wrote an Op-Ed for the New York Times and they fell crazy, utterly, in love. However, four months later she was diagnosed with AML, a fierce leukemia. In her memoir Left on Tenth, Ephron enchants as she seesaws between tears and laughter, navigating the lows of enduring cutting-edge treatment and the giddy highs of a second chance at love while having Peter and her close girlfriends by her side. Now, her book has been adapted into a Broadway play. Ephron was in conversation with Amy E. Schwartz, Moment Magazine’s Book & Opinion Editor, at the Jewish Book Festival at the Museum of Jewish Heritage in New York City.
