Jennifer Caplan, PhD (University of Cincinnati) is on hand to discuss her brand-new book, Funny, You Don’t LOOK Funny: Judaism and Humor from the Silent Generation to Millennials (Wayne State University Press).
In this comprehensive approach focused on the relationship between Jewish humor and American Jewish practice, Caplan calls us to adopt a more expansive view of what it means to “do Jewish.”
