Psalms of the Jewish Liturgy

Miriyam Glazer, rabbi, long-time literature professor, healthy/ethical foodie, and frequent Visiting Scholar & public speaker, has authored/co-authored books ranging from the engaged spiritual to the poetic to the delicious, including PSALMS OF THE JEWISH LITURGY: A GUIDE TO THEIR BEAUTY, POWER & MEANING -- a book that seeks to engage your heart, mind, and soul, your humor and your earthiness; THE ESSENTIAL JEWISH FESTIVAL COOKBOOK: 200 SEASONAL RECIPES & THEIR TRADITIONS -- written with my sister Phyllis, and filled with fascinating festival lore & mouth-watering, healthy recipes of the global Jewish cuisine, including Persian, Libyan, Moroccan, Ashkenazi,among many others; DREAMING THE ACTUAL: Fiction and Poetry by Israeli Women Writers, a compelling book that unfolds Israeli women's versions of the country's story, from the pre-state era to the present -- and more. I am nothing if not eclectic, and am now working on issues of Jewish spirituality and environmental justice. I'm married to Anthony Elman, now , joyously, the rabbi of the Jewish Home for the Aging after many years as a psychotherapist in England, and the mother of Avigail, a tv writer & producer.
