I looked up Joe Lahota when I heard Chaim say his name "Lahora" rather than "Lehota"
Wikipeida says that his mother's mother was Jewish. Is this true? Does this change JTF's stance on him?
Lhota is the son of a retired lieutenant in the NYPD. His paternal grandfather was an FDNY firefighter, and his maternal grandfather was a New York City taxi driver. His father’s family is Czech, and his mother is of half-Italian (from her father) and half-Jewish (from her mother) ancestry.[2] Lhota was raised Catholic, and identifies as a Christian.[1]
Lhota was the first member of his family to attend college. He graduated with honors from Georgetown University in 1976. He then received an MBA from Harvard Business School in 1980.[3]
