A woman of wonderful inspiration, leadership, and achievement on so many fronts. I was perhaps too young to appreciate it fully in the early '70s. And an amazing daughter Katya who introduced some of us to issues of identity way before they became everyday.

I remember Inge well from our mutual involvements in the Society for the Advancement of Judaism and Americans for Progressive Israel. I was also her editor for an article in Israel Horizons magazine. She was a passionate thinker and doer.

I loved her as an aunt. Loved to discuss the political scenery in Israel with her. She was open minded and a real peace fighter.
