Leonard Grunstein, Esq. joins the Revel Board

Grunstein_PhotoLeonard Grunstein, Esq. of Teaneck, NJ has become the newest member of the Revel Board of Overseers. He and his wife, Chana Tambor Grunstein (YUHS-G '72), are generous benefactors of Yeshiva University. Their three children, Eli, Michal, and Rachel, as well as their daughter-in-law and sons-in-law, are all graduates of YU schools. He has recently published an extensive, deeply learned analysis of the contemporary application of Jewish laws regarding the taking of interest.  The study, which appeared in The Banking Law Journal, a highly respected professional publication, reflects Mr. Grunstein’s mastery of the intricacies of a complex area of halakhah, of the similar challenges raised by the strictures of Islamic law, and of the workings of Western economies. He is thus not only a valued supporter of Revel; he personifies the intellectual ideals that Revel strives to impart.
