Rabbi Brody

Rabbi Suzanne Brody is a graduate of Wellesley College, has a PhD in neuroscience, and received rabbinic ordination from the Ziegler School of Rabbinic Studies in Los Angeles, CA in 2012.

Rabbi Brody’s passion for innovating new ways to share a love of learning about and doing Judaism has found outlets in creating dynamic programming for Jews of all ages. She has worked in both formal and informal educational settings and has designed and taught numerous courses.

 
In addition to her more scholarly work and her participation in the Rabbinical Assembly’s Committee on Jewish Laws and Standards, and as a JEA Board Member, Suzanne is the author of five books of poetry and one novella: Dancing in the White Spaces, Etz Chayim She: Modern Poems Grown from Ancient Texts, Mermaid Tears, Lunch with Rav Dimi, Unearthed, and Serah’s Secrets.
