Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
Hanna Rosin, a writer for the Atlantic and Double X — the Slate Group’s new online magazine for women — will be answering readers’ questions as the Forward’s next guest Bintel Brief advice columnist. Rosin was nominated this year for a National Magazine Award for her Atlantic piece on transgendered children. She is the author of “God’s Harvard: A Christian College on a Mission to Save America” (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2007). The Israeli-born, Queens-reared Rosin lives in Washington, D.C. with her husband, Slate editor David Plotz, and their three children.
The first installment of the Bintel Brief featuring Rosin will be posted at www.forward.com on Monday, May 18. If you have a question for the Bintel Brief, e-mail [email protected]. Questions selected for publication are printed anonymously.
Why I became the Forward’s editor-in-chief
You are surely a friend of the Forward if you’re reading this. And so it’s with excitement and awe — of all that the Forward is, was, and will be — that I introduce myself to you as the Forward’s newest editor-in-chief.
And what a time to step into the leadership of this storied Jewish institution! For 129 years, the Forward has shaped and told the American Jewish story. I’m stepping in at an intense time for Jews the world over. We urgently need the Forward’s courageous, unflinching journalism — not only as a source of reliable information, but to provide inspiration, healing and hope.
