...Finally, I am just getting into this neat book called The Heebie-Jeebies at CBGBs: A Secret History of Jewish Punk. So far, I am really enjoying Beeber's analysis. I haven't yet read the chapter called, "The New JAPS (Jewish American Punks): Jewish American Women and the Birth of Female Punk," however I can already tell it overlooks some women celebrated on this listserv. I seem to have a vague recollection of hearing that Ari-Up and Lora Logic are Jewish and I don't see their names in the index. Anyone familiar with this book who wants to chime in?...
***Hi Dina: I've read the book, and exchanged messages with the author, who appears to be open to suggestions. 
 
In the interest of full discosure, the author cited my book in the chapter on Deborah Harry--"Chris Stein Creates the First Punk Princess"--and mentioned my name in the Acknowledgements.
