Dov Honick and Sarah Snider

We are pleased to announce that two upcoming scholars, Dov Honick and Sarah Snider, will be joining us for the duration of Sukkot. They will be present at all our festive meals in the Sukkah and will be available to give a number of lectures and shorter talks.

Sarah Snider is Clinical Assistant Professor of Writing at NYU-Shanghai, where she co-chairs the Creative Writing program. Her current project is a collection-in-progress of interconnected creative nonfiction and lyric essay about Orthodox Jewish identity. Alongside her academic and creative work, Sarah recently completed a 5-year stint on the Michiana Jewish Film Festival Committee and plays recreational ice hockey. 

Dov Honick is a medieval historian focusing on Jewish-Christian cultural and intellectual exchange. He is currently a Ph.D. candidate at the Medieval Institute at the University of Notre Dame, as well as the 2023-2024 Paul Mellon Rome Prize Fellow at the American Academy in Rome. Dov’s work focuses on the Christian Hebraist movement of the 12th and 13th centuries and the ways in which Rabbinic literature is reconstrued by and for Christian audiences.
