This is a very special episode for me, in which we discuss my Rebbe, HaGaon HaRav Moshe Dovid Tendler zt"l. We are joined by one of his granddaughters and a longtime colleague of mine, Rachel Rosensweig. She provides a synopsis of the Conjoined Twins ruling he was involved in and speaks more broadly about more personal aspects of Rav Tendler that many are likely unfamiliar with.

Bio: Rachel Rosensweig teaches Gemara and Halacha at Ma’ayanot Yeshiva High School for Girls in Teaneck, New Jersey, where she also coaches the school’s Torah Bowl team. Rachel received her B.A. in Judaic studies and biology from Stern College for Women. She holds an M.A. from Yeshiva University’s Graduate Program in Advanced Talmud and Tanach Studies (GPATS) as well as a dual M.S.-M.A. from the Azrieli School of Jewish Education and Administration and the Bernard Revel Graduate School of Judaic Studies. She was honored to receive the Wexner Graduate Fellowship/Davidson Scholarship as part of Class 33, the final cohort of the program. Rachel lives in Washington Heights, NY with her husband Moshe and daughter Miriam Shifra.
