Interviews with Fabrangen Founding Members
Oral Histories
The Jewish Counterculture History Project from the University of Pennsylvania is an oral history of the beginnings of the havurah movement. Detailed information is available on their website at Jewish Counterculture History Project.
The focus of the interviews is on each person’s experiences during the late sixties and early seventies, particularly their involvement with specific Havurot, and also the impact that the havurah has had on their own lives and on American Jewry more broadly. Below are interviews with Fabrangeners and former Fabrangeners. Gerry was interviewed about the New York Havurah. Rob, David, Arthur & Chava were interviewed about Fabrangen.
Jayne Guberman was the interviewer for all videos.
