Len Traubman co-founded with Libby the 19-year-old Jewish-Palestinian Living Room Dialogue of San Mateo, preparing for its 234th meeting.  For 25 years he has helped bring "enemies" together and has published on successful public peace processes from personal experience with Soviets and Americans, Armenians and Azerbaijanis, Jews and Palestinians, and Muslim and Christian Nigerians. He co-produced the new documentary, Abraham's Vision: Graduation Day!  A retired pediatric dentist, Len was the 1998 Distinguished Alumnus of the University of California School of Dentistry.

Libby Traubman, a retired clinical social worker, helped organize the 1991 Beyond War conference for Israeli and Palestinian citizen-leaders resulting in a historic signed document, Framework For A Public Peace Process.  She co-produced three films that model a new quality of listening and communication - Dialogue At Washington High, Peacemakers: Palestinians & Jews Together at Camp, and Crossing Lines In Fresno.  For her community service and global influence, Libby was inducted into the San Mateo County Women's Hall of Fame.

An enemy is one whose story we have not heard.
