A meeting with then–Israeli ambassador to the United States, Yitzhak Rabin, strengthened Oren’s decision to move to Israel. Reading about Rabin sparked Oren’s interest in the Israeli ambassadorship to Washington, a post he would eventually attain. Oren won two gold medals at the 1977 Maccabiah Games in rowing, a sport in which he remains active. At age 15, he made his first trip to Israel with the youth movement Habonim Dror, working on Kibbutz Gan Shmuel.
