Chaya Benady

Chaya Benady was born into a secular family and she is a “Ba’lat Teshuva”, a Jewish woman who has returned to Judaism. She has been walking this path for nearly a decade. Her husband is a Jew by choice – a convert. Her love of writing coupled with her ongoing Torah study and a steadfast commitment to Jewry has given birth to a new fiction series, her first in a humble attempt to share various joys and sorrows a Jewish community faces in a modern world. Chaya lives on the East Coast of the United States with her husband. She is also a mother, teacher, student and volunteer.
