Books & teaching resources
My writing includes essays, sermons, poetry, liturgy and teaching materials exploring Judaism, ethics, spirituality, history and interfaith encounter.
For information about available books and study resources, or to discuss using material in a learning group, please get in touch.
Music & cultural collaboration
I sing, compose and develop programmes bringing together prayer, storytelling, poetry and songs from different traditions. Some ideas become a written page; others ask for music, performance or a shared gathering.
I welcome conversations with artists, educators and organisations about publications, performances and cultural projects.
