Rabbi Joshua Ginsberg began his Jewish journey at Loyola University of Chicago Hillel. After earning a B.A. in History, his spiritual path took him to Los Angeles, where he began his rabbinic studies at the University of Judaism. However, he was destined to become a rabbi on the other coast, at the Jewish Theological Seminary in New York City, from which he graduated in 2004. It was at JTS that he met his bershert, Jenna Greenberg, then a student in the Cantorial School. Jenna's lovely voice led them to Washington DC two years ago. Josh comes to GW Hillel after serving a small synagogue in Bowie, MD. His Jewish and cultural tastes are varied and eclectic. He is a Seinfeld and Simpson's aficionado, who also enjoys the bright lights of Broadway and the beautiful harmonies of Jewish Choral music. He also finds something to connect to deeply in all the streams and varied approaches that make up contemporary Jewish life. He looks forward to getting to know students, parents, and faculty. If you can't find him at Hillel he is probably at Starbucks or any place where a good cup of coffee can be found.
