Biography
She grew up in Summit, New Jersey and now lives on the Upper West Side with her husband Gregorio Orellano of Manhattan, and has two children, Ana and Hans.[1] Rev. Neumark received her undergraduate degree from Brown University and completed her Master of Divinity at the Lutheran Theological Seminary at Philadelphia.[2]
Neumark spent 20 years at Transfiguration Lutheran Church in the
bisexual, and transgender individuals and couples as fully participating members of our ministry. We encourage worshippers who are uncomfortable with the nouns and pronouns in the liturgy
and hymns that convey a gender for God to substitute a word or words that better express their praise of the Triune God."
From Publishers Weekly
In 1984, when Neumark became pastor of Transfiguration Lutheran Church, the
GED, found a job and is now a leader in church and community. "Some future pillars of the church arrive in ruins," Neumark wryly notes. With its hard-nosed realism and passion for God, this memoirshould appeal to people of faith across the political spectrum.
