If you've tuned in to Olympic coverage the past few days, you must have heard it by now.

Dara Torres, the All-American mom! In her fifth Olympics, with a plethora of medals behind her! At the age of 41, still as good as ever!

Make that the All-American Jewish mom. That's right, Torres, half-Jewish through her father by birth, made a full conversion after marrying her second husband.
