Together we can keep
Bay Harbor Islands moving forward.
VOTE Tuesday April 2nd
Dear fellow Bay Harbor Islanders,
My name is “Ezzy” Eric Rappaport, and I am a candidate for the Bay Harbor Islands Town Council. The municipal election is Tues April 2nd 2024, with early voting on Thurs March 28th and Sat March 30th.
I am married to Malka, who has a master’s degree in education and teaches after-school program at Ruth K. Broad Bay Harbor K-8 Center. I am the proud father of four children and a step-son.
I was born in Toronto, Canada, and attended high school in Los Angeles and continued my education in Miami Beach and New York, where I later studied Economics and International Relations at Columbia University. Part of my studies involved humanitarian and social aid projects, which has given me a perspective on the needs of others in communities and countries other than my own.
Later I worked with non-government organizations on various issues and started a public relations and marketing firm to accomplish those tasks. My parents were Holocaust survivors who instilled in me an appreciation and respect for others and to embrace our differences.
One of my interests led me to become an Emergency Medical Technician and I had the solemn privilege of working at the World Trade Center disaster site after Sept 11/2001
Malka is originally from Johannesburg, South Africa, and received her degree from the University of South Africa and taught 3rd and 4th grades in New York, and then junior high in Miami Beach.
Since moving to Bay Harbor Islands in 2014, I have focused on real estate and new ventures while remaining active with advocacy on a volunteer basis.
I love Bay Harbor Islands as I know you do, and with your support and vote, I will bring my energy, experience, passion, and leadership to represent all residents on our Town Council.
