Rav. Jonathan Posner is the rabbi of the Anna & Fred Doppelt Base Andersonville, part of Silverstein Base Chicago, and a proud Chicagoan. Ordained by JTS in New York, Rav Jonathan returned to Chicago in 2021 to grow the Base community. Jonathan’s rabbinate is built upon delicious food, a love of Torah, and a commitment to radical hospitality to serve Jews of all stripes. Prior to Base, he has worked with Congregation Rodfei Zedek in Hyde Park, Mishkan Chicago, the Park Slope Jewish Center, and BBYO. Rav Jonathan has also studied under Rabbi Benay Lappe of SVARA, a queer-oriented, “traditionally radical” yeshiva based in Chicago. Rav Jonathan and his family are enthusiastic members of the AES community.
