Early life and educationFarber grew up in Riverdale, Bronx, New York. He received a BA from New York University,[1] was ordained as a rabbi by the Rabbi Isaac Elchanan Theological Seminary of Yeshiva University in 1991, received an MA in Judaic Studies from Yeshiva University in 1995, and a PhD from the Hebrew University in Jerusalem in 2000.{{Citation needed|date=March 2015}} Farber's great-great-great-grandfather was the pre-eminent Central European Rabbi Moshe Sofer, better known as the Chasam Sofer (or Chatam Sofer).[1] CareerFarber was a teacher at the Maimonides School in Brookline, Massachusetts. After moving to Israel, he founded ITIM, an organization that aims to assist Israelis with the legal intricacies of personal status—marriage, divorce, conversion, and burial—which are administered by the Ministry of Religious Affairs in a manner that often leaves families bewildered, overwhelmed, and resentful.[1] Farber is widely cited in the press on the politically fraught issues of personal status among Jews in Israel.[2][3][4] The New York Times called Farber a "pragmatic idealist" who believes that Orthodox Jews — including the rabbinate — and non-Orthodox Jews need to learn to "to trust each other" sufficiently to work together on difficult issues of personal status.[5]Personal lifeFarber is married with five children, Moshe, Chani, Shira, Esti, and Tali. He lives in Ra'anana, Israel.[6] Selected worksBooks

"Farber, 41, has a round, clean-shaven face and frameless glasses that make him look like an earnest grad student. He grew up in Riverdale, N.Y., attending the kind of Orthodox parochial school that, he told me, "celebrated Americanism," that turned the American bicentennial into the focus of an entire school year." 6. ^{{cite web |url=http://torahinmotionusa.org/users/rabbi-seth-farber|title=Rabbi Seth Farber|date= |website=torahinmotionusa.org|publisher= |access-date=March 21, 2015}} External links
