Carnie Shalom Rose
Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
Rabbi Carnie Shalom Rose is someone who learns from others and has a way of giving just the right message to each individual for every occasion. His d’var Torah each Shabbat is inspiring and teaches a meaningful lesson. In addition, he is actively involved in the Jewish and interfaith community. Rabbi Rose recently underwent brain surgery to remove a tumor, and his comeback has been a lesson to many in how to be positive, resourceful and inspiring on the way to recovery. He is an energetic, enthusiastic and outstanding leader and teacher.

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.
Support our mission to tell the Jewish story fully and fairly.
