America’s most famous personality found dead at her home in Manhattan

The world has lost a true icon with the passing of Dr. Ruth Westheimer, the renowned sex therapist and media personality who captivated audiences for decades with her candid, no-nonsense approach to relationships and sexuality. At 96 years old, Dr. Ruth’s remarkable life was a testament to resilience, determination, and a lifelong passion for empowering people to embrace their sexuality without shame or inhibition.

Born in Germany in 1928, Dr. Ruth’s early life was marked by the horrors of the Holocaust. After narrowly escaping the concentration camps, she found refuge in Switzerland and eventually made her way to Israel, where she served as a sniper in the Haganah, the Jewish paramilitary organization. It was these harrowing experiences that shaped her unwavering belief that sex and pleasure should be celebrated, not hidden or shamed.

In the 1980s, Dr. Ruth burst onto the scene as a radio host, dispensing her signature brand of frank, often humorous advice to listeners seeking guidance on matters of the heart and bedroom. Her diminutive stature, thick German accent, and unabashed approach to topics considered taboo at the time earned her the moniker “the Canary,” a nod to her ability to chirp about sex with unbridled enthusiasm.
