Bio
Ben Zion Kogen
I had the distinct privilege of working with EJ Cohen at many CAJE conferences -- on a variety of university campuses across the U.S. As an interpreter, EJ is second to none. During both daytime sessions, and the evening entertainment events at CAJE, EJ was always a source of strength and information -- a window into the world of the hearing impaired. She made signing come alive in a most dynamic way -- and always with good cheer and a sense of humor. What a great gift she was to CAJE -- and to all of its Conference participants!

EJ is a sensitive and creative interpreter who can raise your understanding of what is being said or sung beyond its written meaning to its inner soul.
