In an unprecedented collaboration, Bernstein's current book, "Journey to the Ring," pairs him with Phil Jackson, the NBA's most successful coach, for a behind-the-schenes re-creation of the LA Lakers 2009-10 championship season.

The National Jewish Sports Hall of Fame and Museum is dedicated to honoring Jewish athletes, coaches, executives and others who have distinguished themselves in the world of sports. Each year those persons being inducted are honored in a ceremony held at the Suffolk Y JCC in Commack, NY, the home of the Hall of Fame.
