Dear Sisterhood Readers
My name is Abigail Jones, and I am thrilled to introduce myself as the new Sisterhood editor. I have always enjoyed the thoughtful, provocative conversations that take place here, and I am eager to continue the great work that Gabrielle Birkner started three years ago.
I come to the Forward by way of The Daily, where I launched and ran the publication’s web and social media presence for nearly two years. Before that, I wrote. A lot. And often about women. I am the co-author of the New York Times nonfiction bestseller “Restless Virgins: Love, Sex, and Survival at a New England Prep School,” which follows the social and sexual lives of seven teenagers. I have also written extensively about girlhood, art, culture, aging and more.
Enough about me; I want to hear from you. What do you want to read about in the Sisterhood? What topics matter most to you? Feel free to email me at [email protected]. You can also find me on Twitter at @abigaildj.
I look forward to hearing from you — and to continuing to make the Sisterhood the leading forum for Jewish women on the Internet.
Abigail Jones, Digital Features Editor
A message from our editor-in-chief Jodi Rudoren
We're building on 127 years of independent journalism to help you develop deeper connections to what it means to be Jewish today.
With so much at stake for the Jewish people right now — war, rising antisemitism, a high-stakes U.S. presidential election — American Jews depend on the Forward's perspective, integrity and courage.
