Illuminated Tales
Created by a famed political cartoonist during the rise of Hitler, the Arthur Szyk Haggadah is being reproduced for the first time since 1940 in a limited edition.
The colorful, intensely detailed drawings, done in the style of medieval manuscript illumination, will be accompanied by essays by scholars of Jewish art.
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.
