10 Questions Jill Soloway of “Transparent” Answers on the High Holidays

10Q is a national project that asks people to answer a question a day online for 10 days during the High Holidays. It offers a way for Jews and people of all backgrounds to slow down and reflect. Answers are emailed to a secure online vault just after Yom Kippur. Next year, just before Rosh Hashanah starts, answers are sent back to participants, and the whole process begins again. Among the many participants are Jill Soloway, the creator of the hit shows Transparent and I Love Dick. Watch a Yom Kippur scene on Transparent here.
