I was especially struck by this part. She sounds amazing, I wish I could've met her.

So your school books are not your "school books" (let alone your "stuff"), because a Chumash and a biology textbook don't get lumped together.
A "weekend" is not a "weekend", because Shabbos kodesh and Sunday don't get lumped together. | |
I read these recollections and they really struck a chord. I can picture Reb David a”h saying all of these things.
I credit her with shaping my world view, and it’s been about 15 years since I heard her speak.

I’m so glad my youngest daughter was privileged to learn from Reb. David last year in BJJ. (She plans to get up at 4:00 am to listen to the levaya.)
Yehi zichrah baruch!

Thank you for posting this link.
I remember the author well, and her "Press" conferences.
This is flooding me with memories.
