Oracle co-CEO Safra Catz and San Francisco writer Molly Antopol each landed spots on this year’s Forward 50, a list of newsworthy and notable American Jews selected by the Jewish Daily Forward.
Catz, an executive at Redwood City-based Oracle since 1999, was born in 1961 in Holon, Israel. Antopol, 36, lives in San Francisco and teaches in the creative writing program at Stanford University. Her 2014 short-story collection, “The Un-Americans,” chronicles the 20th-century American immigrant experience.
The selections on this year’s annual list span chefs to politicians to agency leaders to sports and entertainment figures. For details, visit www.forward.com/specials/forward-50-2014.
