Michael Tobin Interview

Michael Tobin has been a marital and family psychologist for 45 years. He is the founder of the award-winning website, www.wholefamily.com, which contains numerous articles about relationships. His series of articles, The Marital Labyrinth , which delves into marriage, marital affairs, and how to affair-proof a relationship, was featured in Psychology Today. His new book, Riding the Edge, A Love Song to Deborah, chronicles a six-month transformative journey in 1980, when he, an American Jew, and Deborah, an Arab American, bicycled across Europe, Lebanon, and Israel, where they confronted the challenges of love, war, and identity. They have been together for 47 years now, and are the parents of four and the grandparents of 14. We spoke about the spiritual implications of the adventure he describes in his book and the challenges he’s faced since Deborah was diagnosed with Alzeimer’s.
