The global website of the World Jewish Congress Jewish Diplomatic Corps Speakers Bureau is supported, in part, by a generous gift from Dr. Robert Beitman and family, in loving memory of his son, Mark Evan Beitman, z”l.
Mark was a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of the University of Delaware. He earned a master’s degree in Religious Studies from the University of Chicago, where he was also planning to pursue a doctorate in Modern Jewish Thought. He studied and wrote in depth on Kabbalah.
Mark Beitman passed away on July 24, 2020 at the age of 34.
