The full season is supposed to land on Amazon Prime two weeks from now, on December 11th, the eve of the sixth Hanukkah candle. It’s a real Hanukkah miracle!
I, for one, cannot wait to be reunited with my favorite dysfunctional Jewish family and its transgender matriarch played by the amazing Jeffrey Tambor.
Consider my evening plans cancelled! Pfeffermans, here I come!
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.
