Rabbi Adam Mintz

Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
“When my significant other and I were having relationship trouble, Rabbi Mintz met us almost at midnight at his apartment — in his pajamas! He proceeded to counsel us for months at no charge. I know that he has done similarly for other members of our community. Rabbi Mintz has also been my chief mentor in my rabbinic studies. He has given me advice, critiqued my sermons and helped me professionally more than anyone else — as he has done for other rabbis in training.”

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.
