Lynn Gottlieb (born April 12, 1949 in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania) is an American rabbi in the Jewish Renewal movement.[1]
In 1974, she founded the now-defunct feminist theater troupe Bat Kol.[2][3]
In 1981, she became the first woman ordained as a rabbi in the Jewish Renewal movement; she was ordained by rabbis Zalman Schachter, Everett Gendler, and Shlomo Carlebach.[4][5]
She authored She Who Dwells Within: A Feminist Vision of a Renewed Judaism (1995).[6]
In 2007 she was selected as one of The Other Top 50 Rabbis by Letty Cottin Pogrebin.[7]
Gottlieb led a Fellowship of Reconciliation delegation to Iran in 2008, thus becoming the first female rabbi to visit Iran in a public delegation since the 1979 Iranian Revolution.[8]
A 2013 dissertation from the University of New Mexico's department of anthropology, “Storied Lives in a Living Tradition: Women Rabbis and Jewish Community in 21st Century New Mexico,” by Dr. Miria Kano, discusses Gottlieb and four other female rabbis of New Mexico.[9]
Gottlieb supports the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) campaign.[10]
