Education

Philanthropy

He and his wife, Julia, have served on the boards of the Jewish Community Center of Northern Virginia and Gesher Jewish Day School, where they were instrumental in contributing and fundraising for the school’s permanent location. They raised their three children in northern Virginia and now split their time between Fairfax, VA and St. Petersburg, FL. In 2020, David was honored to make the gift of three paintings from the 19th-century Jewish artist Moritz Oppenheim to The Jewish Museum in New York City.
