What do a rabbi and a flight attendant have in common?
David Pinkwasser’s captivating memoir, “The Adventures of the Rabbi Who Became a Flight Attendant,” has an answer!
This delightful and thought-provoking book offers readers a rare glimpse into a dual career that spans over 25 years of spiritual guidance and a surprising second act at 30,000 feet.
After more than two decades as a Reform Rabbi, Pinkwasser decided to become a flight attendant. This unexpected transition was met with curiosity, skepticism, and, of course, suspicion: How does a spiritual leader become a steward of the skies? What could possibly connect these two very different professions?
In his memoir, Pinkwasser answers these questions and more. Sharing a series of vivid, touching, and often laugh-out-loud stories from both career paths, from presiding over weddings and funerals to managing in-flight emergencies, he narrates that whether he was guiding congregants in the synagogue or comforting nervous flyers in the cabin, his core mission remained the same: serving others with empathy, humor, and a steady hand. Moreover, his ability to remain calm under pressure, offer comfort, and find humor even in the most awkward situations sets the tone for this heartwarming narrative.
The core of being a rabbi and a flight attendant isn’t all that different. Both professions are about people, about being there when they need you and doing your best to make their journey a little easier. Whether you are standing at the pulpit or walking down an airplane aisle, this book will help you bridge the gap between a Rabbi and a flight attendant.
With a delightful blend of humor and reflection, inviting you to see beyond the stereotypes of both professions—each chapter of this book is filled with insights from Pinkwasser’s unique perspective, showing that meaningful experiences can happen in the most unexpected places.
“The Adventures of the Rabbi Who Became a Flight Attendant” is not just a story of a surprising career change. Instead, it is a celebration of reinvention, resilience, and the courage to embrace life’s twists and turns with grace, empathy, and courage. With its relatable themes of service, faith, and humor, the book is perfect for anyone looking for an uplifting and inspiring read—one that will help anyone to follow their dreams or a diverse career path.
