Come listen to the fascinating story of Tamar Myers' childhood growing up in the Congo, moving to America and her journey converting to Judaism. 

Tamar Myers was born and raised in the Belgian Congo (now just the Congo). Her parents were missionaries to a tribe which, at that time, were known as headhunters and used human skulls for drinking cups. Hers was the first white family ever to peacefully coexist with the tribe, and Tamar grew up fluent in the local trade language. Because of her pale blue eyes, Tamar’s nickname was Ugly Eyes.

A prolific writer, Tamar has authored numerous bestselling books, including the Den of Antiquity and Pennsylvania Dutch Mystery series, along with standalone novels, short stories, and anthologies. Below are just a few of her popular works. Explore more of her publications here: Tamar Myers on Goodreads.
