A former Americans for Ben-Gurion University fellow has shared a letter that his grandmother received from David Ben-Gurion, also an author in 1965, two years after the latter had served his second tenure as Israeli prime minister.
According to Britannica, David Ben-Gurion was the First prime minister of Israel (1948–53, 1955–63). He was introduced to Zionism by his father, and immigrated to Palestine, then part of the Ottoman Empire, in 1906, hoping to fulfill the Zionist aspiration of building a Jewish state in historic Israel.
