Known for her passionate work, she has been widely published in the Yiddish press. She has led many leyenkrayzn (Yiddish reading circles), collaborated on several Yiddish book projects, and served on the boards of various Yiddish organizations. She holds degrees from New York University and Hofstra College and immersed herself in teaching and Yiddish studies at Columbia University, Oxford, and the YIVO.Born in Los Angeles, Handler was raised by her Lubavitch grandparents in New Jersey.
