ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Sarah Hurwitz is one of the most gifted and accomplished speechwriters in the modern political world. As the primary writer for Michelle Obama - and previously for Hillary Clinton - she has had a front row seat to history unfolding, and played a role in shaping the public's understanding of it.

But Sarah is also a passionate Jew, and she recently focused her prodigious research and writing skills on learning about and publishing on Judaism; her book, "Here All Along," presents her argument for Judaism's relevancy and deep meaning in today's world.
