Author Biography
Alexander Jonathan Vidgop is a theatre director, author and screenwriter. Alexander is the founder
of the Am haZikaron Institute for Science and Heritage of the Jewish People. He is the recipient of
the Zeiti Yerushalaim Prize and the medal “For contribution to the development of the national
spiritual heritage of the Jewish People”.
Alexander was born in Leningrad in 1955. In 1974 he was expelled from what is now called the
Saint-Petersburg State University of Culture and Arts “for behaviour unworthy of the title of Soviet
student”. Having worked as a locksmith, loader and White Sea sailor, he was drafted into the army
and sent to serve in the Arctic Circle. Graduating from the Russian State Academy of Performing
Arts in 1982, he was involved in 23 productions across the USSR, 12 of which were shut down. In
1989 he emigrated to Israel, where he has worked as a director, editor and researcher. He is the
author of several books.
Mainstream United
I'm representing modern Israeli Russian-speaking writer Jonathan Vidgop. This author's first book was granted fund of Israeli president and received recognition in Israel in 1999. The author writes rarely. There are two very different books offered. One, a result of 20 years of collecting historical material, is a collection of more than 100 very funny short stories of sexuality and attitude to Jews of famous personalities of different countries and times. The other book, very recent, is a a grotesque phantasmagoria, novel "Testimony", whose style, if any, can be compared to Susskind's Perfume. See description of the books below.
