About
Janice Prager (born Janice Adelstein) is an American author and long-time collaborator known for her work with her former husband, conservative commentator Dennis Prager, on books and projects focused on happiness, personal development, joy, ethics, and personal fulfillment. She was Dennis Prager's second wife; they met in 1980 while she was working as a nurse at the Brandeis-Bardin Institute in California, and they married on January 15, 1981, during his early radio career. Their marriage produced a son, but they separated in 1986 and divorced shortly thereafter (with some sources indicating a divorce around 2003). Her background as a nurse informed a practical approach to themes of well-being and resilience in their joint endeavors. Post-divorce, Janice maintained a lower public profile but continued contributions to writing and collaborative efforts in self-help and motivational literature, with an established bibliography on her Amazon author page. While not prominently active in public discourse independently, her association with Dennis Prager places her within networks of conservative thought and media.
