- Ethel Dimont is a lecturer and author. In 1962 she co-author Jews, God and History, along with her husband Max I. Dimont, which received critical acclaim and has sold almost 3 million copies which the Los Angeles Times praised as, "unquestionably the best popular history of the Jews written in the English language". Because of the success of the book, Ethel, along with her husband Max, has traveled the world over, having met with heads of state such as David Ben Gurion, Menachem Begin, Martin Buber and several other Arab Middle Eastern leaders. In 1972 a car accident changed the focus of Ethel’s life. An improperly diagnosed closed head injury caused a slow erosion of her health. She has now authored a book The Hidden Injury, which takes you through the struggles of living with a misdiagnosis, to finding the correct information that can help deal with the recovery of a head injury." Ethel is a native of New York City, but moved to St. Louis, Missouri after her marriage to Max in 1946, (now deceased). Her daughter, son-in-law, three grandsons, two great grand-daughters and one great grandson, still live in New York City.
