This year’s gala will honor writer and teacher Bel Kaufman, who turned 100 last May. She is best known for her novel Up the Down Staircase, based on her experiences as a teacher in various New York City high schools. Last year, Kaufman became the oldest-known working professor when she was hired by Hunter College, her alma mater, to teach a course on Jewish humor.
