The Mavens: the Pulpit, the Pen, and the Podcast
Hosted By: The Florence Melton School of Adult Jewish Learning
The Florence Melton School of Adult Jewish Education presents a three-session course, The Mavens: the Pulpit, the Pen, and the Podcast. The program will explore Jewish advice-givers across generations, from the immigrant struggles reflected in the Yiddish “Bintel Brief,” to the mainstream cultural influence of Ann Landers and Dear Abby, to modern voices like Dr. Ruth Westheimer, Rabbi Shmuley Boteach, and Esther Perel. Through humor, history, and real-life dilemmas, the course examines how advice columns and public voices have shaped Jewish identity, values, and culture.
