Herb Keinom is a reporter at the Jerusalem Post, for which he has written on a wide range of topics over the course of his more-than-30-year career. Lisa Hackel conceived of the idea for Lone Soldiers while on a family vacation to Israel, where she first heard the term "lone soldier." Ricki Rosen is a photojournalist with more than 25 years of experience. Her work has been featured in publications such as Newsweek, the New York Times Magazine, People, and Time. Her portraits of Ethiopian Jews rescued during the 1991 Operation Solomon mission are gathered in the book Transformations: From Ethiopia to Israel.
