Does anybody know how Jon Voight ended up learning Chabad Chassidus, volunteering for their telethons, narrating Chabad videos, etc? He’s not Jewish at all. I’m just very curious if there’s a story known in Chabad circles as to how he got to this point. I can’t find one anywhere. April 10, 2018 9:40 am at 9:40 am #1504560 JosephParticipant Paid hand?

Also, that would make sense if it were just the narrating gig, but he seems to be a pretty consistent supporter. He’s also a big pro-Israel supporter.
