Becoming Dr. Ruth at Farmers Alley Theatre

Karola Ruth Siegel is more than just “Dr. Ruth.” Everyone knows Dr. Ruth Westheimer from her career as a pioneering radio and television sex therapist. Few know her incredible journey that began with her fleeing the Nazis in the Kindertransport; joining the Haganah in Jerusalem as a scout and sniper; and struggling to succeed as a single mother coming to America. Becoming Dr. Ruth shows us — with honesty and humor — all the ways Ruth Westheimer is an inspiration to us all.
