Women and jewish renaissance in ukraine

Photograph by Joan Roth

Joan Roth, a long time supporter and friend to Project Kesher, is an internationally renowned and award-winning photographer whose work has been published and exhibited throughout the world. Her passion lies in visually conveying the grandeur of ordinary women. Roth traveled worldwide to publish Jewish Women: A World of Tradition and Change, the first book about Jewish women - including cultures such as Ethiopia, India, and Yemen - by a Jewish woman photographer. She also photographed women in Baltimore and Seattle for the Jewish Women's Archive's oral history project, Weaving Women's Words
