The Jewish Review of Books is a quarterly magazine with articles on literature, culture and current affairs from a Jewish perspective. It is published in Cleveland Heights, Ohio.[1]

The magazine was launched in 2010 with an editorial board that included Michael Walzer and Ruth Wisse, Shlomo Avineri, Ruth Gavison,[2] and other prominent Jewish thinkers.[3] The editor is Abraham Socher.[3][4] The initial press run was 30,000 copies.[5][6] According to The Jewish Week, the JRB is "unabashedly" modeled after the venerable New York Review of Books.[5] Harvey Pekar and Tara Seibel collaborated on comic strips for the first two issues of the magazine.[7]

The magazine was initially funded by the Tikvah Fund, founded by Zalman Bernstein.[3][5] In 2022, the publication separated from the Tikvah Fund and is now run independently under the non-profit Jewish Review of Books Foundation, chaired by Jehuda Reinharz, with the Mandel Foundation providing the majority of the funding.[8]

Contributors have included Robert Alter, Elisheva Carlebach, David Ellenson, Daniel Gordis, Moshe Halbertal, Shai Held, Susannah Heschel, Dara Horn, Adam Kirsch, Jonathan Sacks, Haym Soloveitchik, David Wolpe, and Steven Zipperstein.[9]
