Elisabeth Kesten was born in Nurnberg, Germany. After her university education, she received a teaching credential and taught there for several years, after which she moved to Israel.
She also received a teaching credential in Israel, after several years on two kibbutzim. She taught in Kiryat Gat.
After about four years in Israel, she moved to the United States. She has taught in several Jewish Day Schools, and now teaches in a Los Angeles Unified School District elementary school.
Her hobbies include reading and religious studies.
She currently has several writing projects in mind.
She is an active member of Shomrei Torah Synagogue in West Hills where she regularly reads from the Torah during Shabbat services. A few years ago, she taught an adult education course there on the Jews of Medieval Europe. Much of the material used in that course is presented in “On the Side of the Persecuted”, though it was first obtained in the process of doing research for the book. /P>
She lives in the San Fernando Valley with her husband and their two children.
