For the past few years I’ve had the privilege to know Mor Shapiro, author of ‘Still Writing’, ‘Crossing Over’ and ‘The Next Generation’. In addition to his books, he is an award-winning film director and actor and he’s also been a therapist for more than a decade. But what I love most about him is that he’s such a good friend. Whenever he’s in town, he always makes sure to stop by my office and spend time with me. And, he doesn’t hesitate to share his passions with me – especially about music. Whether it’s a new album, his daughter’s heart condition or an old musical favorite, he’s always down to chat.
Marriage to Ben Shapiro
The marriage of Mor Shapiro and Ben Shapiro was not a new thing in the world. They had a traditional Jewish wedding ceremony in Acre, Israel, back in 2008.
Their first child, Leeya Eliana, was born with a congenital heart defect. She had open heart surgery. It was one of the most memorable moments of their wedding.
Before meeting his wife, Ben had been writing books. He had even skipped two grades of school. Upon graduation, he joined the University of California, Los Angeles. There he met his future wife, Mor.
After a couple of years of dating, they got married. Their wedding followed the Jewish customs, including breaking a glass. In the ceremony, Ben’s father read a poem that was special for the wedding.
Ben’s wife, Mor, was not very active on social media sites. However, she was a good singer.
