Please join us for the Seventh Annual Richard and Elizabeth Dubin Lecture. We are honored that our distinguished guest this year will be Ambassador Ron Dermer, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s closest political advisor.

Ron Dermer was appointed as Israel's Ambassador to the United States in July 2013.

In 2004, he co-authored with Natan Sharansky the best-selling book, “The Case for

Democracy: The Power of Freedom to Overcome Tyranny and Terror,” which has

been translated into ten languages. Having previously served in various diplomatic and governmental posts, Ambassador Dermer will speak on the nature of the Israel-US relationship and Israel’s strategic role in a rapidly changing Middle East.
