Well-known Northeast Ohioans remember their bar or bat mitzvah.
As the oldest of three siblings, Rabbi Elle Muhlbaum says her family had no assumption that she would become a bat mitzvah.
For Rabbi Daniel Utley, becoming bar mitzvah meant being part of an unfolding tradition as well as being a ground-breaker at The Temple-Tifereth Israel.
Daniel Blain headed into his bar mitzvah well prepared, having attended the Hebrew Academy of Indianapolis from the time he was 6.
Having arrived in the United States less than two years before his 13th birthday, Roman Frayman had a lot on his mind: learning English, losing his accent and working – his bar mitzvah, not so much.
Always a quick study, Robin Selinger found her one-on-one time preparing for her bat mitzvah with an Israeli tutor and her rabbi to be something of a treat.
Adam Miller felt the pressure – the pressure of following in his sister’s footsteps, the pressure of pleasing his parents and the pressure of his grandparents’ legacy as Holocaust survivors.
