About me
Ariana Silverman became the rabbi of the Isaac Agree Downtown Synagogue in 2016. A native of Chicago, she graduated from Harvard University, was ordained by the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion, is an alumna of the Wexner Graduate Fellowship Program and is a Rabbinic Fellow of the Shalom Hartman Institute. She has served as a rabbi at multiple congregations and has worked for the Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism, the Sierra Club, Hazon, and the Central Conference of American Rabbis (CCAR). She has lived in 12 cities, but her home in the City of Detroit is where she has lived the longest. She and Justin are the proud parents of Rebecca and August, and the whole family enjoys camping, exploring Detroit, and eating ice cream on Shabbat.
