Viki Winterton interviews Jerome Komisar! 

Jerome was born and raised in Brooklyn and completed his undergraduate work at New York University and his graduate studies at Columbia University. Having taught economics at City College of New York, Hamilton College, and the State University of New York Binghamton, he went on to the position of Executive Vice Chancellor and Acting Chancellor of the State University of New York. He was President of the University of Alaska System for eight years. 

Jerome has released his best-selling novel, Elijah: A Novel of 9/11, which is a superbly written account of a successful screenwriter and director who was­ in the South Tower when the planes struck on 9/11, and who is now obsessed with fulfilling his bargain with God and making a film about the tragedy. 

This novel sends readers on a fascinating journey as the Biblical prophet Elijah presents himself to Martin Stein and no one else can see him. Their stimulating discussions about the nature of people, the meaning of events, the history of religion and what God really wants from us are as entertaining as the story plot itself.
