      Aryae Coopersmith

      Aryae Coopersmith co-founded Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach’s House of Love and Prayer in San Francisco in 1968, and later wrote a memoir about it, “Holy Beggars: A Journey from Haight Street to Jerusalem,” published in 2011. Today Aryae leads the One World Lights (OWL) global community, whose vision is “global citizens supporting a course-change for humanity by supporting each other.” He and he and his wife Wendy Berk host the Coastside Torah Circle, Torah learning where “the circle is the rebbe,” at their home in Half Moon Bay.
