DEAR REBBE tells the fascinating story of Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson’s correspondence with sculptor Jacques Lipchitz, opera tenor Jan Peerce, Holocaust survivor and philanthropist David Chase, and writer Chaim Grade. What emerges is a nuanced portrait of a leader who maintained friendships despite disagreement, and four distinguished individuals who sought, and sometimes struggled, to reconcile their work with their faith.
