Our Speaker
Isaac Mizrahi is a celebrated fashion designer, talk show host, writer, and director. He was the co-creator and star of the award-winning documentary Unzipped, and the subject of a large-scale survey at the Jewish Museum in New York City. Before all of that, he was a young boy struggling to navigate the “differentness” of growing up gay in a Syrian Jewish Orthodox community. Acclaimed for its honesty, insight, and wit, Mizrahi’s memoir, I.M., was an instant New York Times bestseller.
