14. Series on Judaism, Book 2 of 2: Judaica Vol. 2 - Robert M. Katzman reveals his unusual and unexpectedly inspiring true-life experiences. He explores faith and tradition, recounting stories he learned from his Jewish immigrant grandparents. Standing up to prejudice and hate, like many Jews faced, was part of Bob's history. He weaves his stories around his everyday life; including creating numerous hard-scrabble businesses; and holding on to his dreams while navigating the corruption of Mayor Daley's era in Chicago's Hyde Park -- starting from when he was a 14-year-old runaway from a terrifying, extremely violent and abusive home in South Side Chicago. His home-made wooden newsstand grew into a nationally-known business. Desperation and determination to stand up for himself and others fueled Bob's resolve to never give up, on his relentless journey through failures and successes. At 17, the shy teenager's seduction by a mysterious, older -Jewish woman taught him much about the gentle, loving and searing relationships that a young man can share with a cherished lover. His lifetime of resilience and entrepreneurial ventures is motivating to others -- despite numerous hardships with his health, little money, and business challenges. Bob refused to give in, and is grateful for every day.
