Description: We are so excited for Cantor Havilio to talk with us about spirituality, diversity, music, and inclusion as the Jewish holidays of Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur approach.
Cantor Tamar Havilio is originally from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. After completing an undergraduate degree in theater at the University of Iowa, she began cantorial studies at the Hebrew Union College in Jerusalem. After completing the cantorial program in 1996, Cantor Havilio served congregations in New York, New Jersey and Milwaukee before pursuing a Master’s program at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts in the Performance Studies Division.
In 2002, Cantor Havilio returned to the Hebrew Union College in Jerusalem as a member of the faculty, where she taught the Reform Movement’s future Jewish leaders. In 2008, she became Head of Cantorial Studies on the Jerusalem Campus. She has also been active with the Women of the Wall Movement, where she is known as the “Cantor of the Kotel.”
In 2020, in the midst of the pandemic, Cantor Havilio, her husband and three sons returned to the U.S. and the midwest. She is the Cantor at Bet Shalom Congregation in Minneapolis.
