With Ami Magazine’s Person of the Year edition rapidly approaching, speculation is mounting as to who the choice will be. Ami is soliciting nominations for this honor from the public.
Last year, Ami honored Reb Moshe Yosef Reichenberg, z”l, a Monsey resident who lost his life trying to save a neighbor’s child from electrocution by a downed wire. His life, the magazine pointed out, was as full of sacrifice for others as his passing was. A tribute article described his life, family, and accomplishments. Subsequent to the Ami article, Reb Moshe Yosef was honored by the Carnegie Hero Fund Commission as a Carnegie Hero.
The editors are looking for a person who have done something for the Jewish people, has inspired others, or has truly given of themselves.
To nominate someone, send an email to editorial@amimagazine.org. Please include the nominee’s name and the reason that you believe he or she should be considered for this honor.
Sounds like Ami is trying desperately to copy Time Magazine.
I nominate Mrs. Esther Pollard and Mrs. Rubashkin for keeping klal yisroel aware, updated and involved in tefilla for their husbands.
TWO super women of the year.
I nominate the leaders at Ami Magazine as people of the year. They produce a quality magazine that i am proud to bring into my home. They have truly revolutionized the landscape of Jewish reading.
It should go to Reb Zev Wolfson a man who gave such vast amounts and never looked for recognition or kovod,and shunned the limelight,we never even knew about him until his petirah.
How about “The Misayem”
i nominate Zev Wolfson z”l, an unbelievable tzaddik and anav, he should be an inspiration to us all
why wasn’t my blog posted?
R Eli Paley and R Grylak.
