"Rabbi Elliot N. Dorff, the Sol and Anne Dorff Distinguished Professor of Philosophy
and Rector of American Jewish University in Los Angeles, is one of today's leading
Jewish ethicists. Writing extensively on the intersection of law, morality, science,
religion, and medicine, Dorff offers an authoritative and non-Orthodox interpretation
of Jewish law. As a leader in the Rabbinical Assembly's Committee on Jewish Law and
Standards, he has shaped the religious practices of Conservative Jews. In serving
on national advisory committees and task forces, he has helped to articulate a distinctive
Jewish voice on contested bioethical and biomedical issues. An analytic philosopher
by training, Dorff has endorsed pluralism, arguing that Jewishness best flourishes
in the context of American pluralism, and he has worked closely with non-Jews to advance
religious pluralism in America"
