Gidon & Julie: a love story
Gidon met Julie Gray when he was looking for an editor for his book. From the moment the two met, they knew they were simpatico. They have been life partners since 2017.
Gidon and Julie enjoy a rich and full life together, making social media content about love, hope and tolerance, and the importance of Holocaust education. And yes, Julie makes all of Gidon's scarves and sweaters!
​
Gidon and Julie have presented their work in discussions about the future of Holocaust education in the digital age at Yad Vashem, The European Jewish Association, Cyberwell, the ADL, Sussex University, and Hebrew University. They have collaborated with The Feel Good Network, End Jewish Hate, the Claims Conference, Jewish Unpacked, and others.
