About the Author

Rabbi Shlomo Einhorn has his rabbinic ordination and a master's in education from Yeshiva University. He started out as a rabbinic intern at Manhattan's legendary Lincoln Square Synagogue. In 2005 he became the head rabbi of New York's West Side Institutional Synagogue. Seven years later this once-empty shul was drawing over 400 people each week and had increased synagogue membership by 70 percent. Rabbi Einhorn's out-of-the-box work was so successful that in 2010 the Orthodox Union gave him his own think tank to craft programming for other synagogues across America. Want to grow your membership? Run a successful Chanukah event? Spice up your shul's Shabbat? Einhorn has a program for that. In 2012, Einhorn moved back to his hometown of Los Angeles to serve as dean and rabbi of Yavneh Hebrew Academy.
