Our annual Salary Survey shows that being a Jewish nonprofit CEO can be pretty darn lucrative. It sure puts to shame the median U.S. salary, which the 2013 Census calculates is $51,939.

Type in your income and see how it stacks up against the median salaries of Jewish CEOs of advocacy and public service, federations, and religious and education organizations. You can also sort by gender, and by individual categories.

You may read it and weep. Or not.

Maia Efrem is the former research editor and assistant to the editor and was also responsible for the Forward’s annual Salary Survey.

Maia is a graduate of Hunter College and Columbia University’s Graduate School of Journalism.
