Leonard Nimoy published a collection of unclad and partly clad women, Shekhina, to explore the feminine aspect of God.
But his use of nude and partly clad female models donning a tallit and tefillin — Jewish prayer accessories traditionally worn by men — has ignited controversy in some parts of the Jewish community.
Shekhina was banned from a Jewish book fair in Detroit last year, and Nimoy’s appearance at a fund-raising dinner for the Jewish Federation of Greater Seattle was canceled shortly after the book was published.
