I Almost Converted to Islam!

By 17, I was doing TV shows.

By 18, I was doing West End Theater, which is the equivalent to Broadway.

I felt the holiness of the Rebbe, and I had never been in the presence of a holy man before, with all the ashrams and with all the imams and what, what I was searching for and looking for.

And I knew I hadn't completed my journey in London.

I knew I had not yet come into the presence of somebody that their holiness was just palatable and palpable.
