Rabbi Yaakov Asher Sinclair
on "Hollywood To The Holy Land"
After a successful career as a record producer, in 1987, Rabbi Sinclair settled in Jerusalem to immerse himself in the study of Torah. His two Torah books The Color of Heaven, on the weekly Torah portion, and Seasons of the Moon met with great critical acclaim. Seasons of the Moon, a unique fine-art black-and-white photography book combining poetry and Torah essays, has now sold out and is much sought after as a collector’s item fetching up to $300 for a mint copy. His online videos on the parsha and Jewish thought are very popular, receiving up to 60,000 views. In 2020, going back to his musical roots, Rabbi Sinclair started a band “The OHRchestra” harnessing talented Ohr Somayach talmidim. He is much in demand as an inspirational speaker both in Israel, Great Britain and the United States. He was Plenary Keynote Speaker at the Agudas Yisrael Convention, and Keynote Speaker at Project Inspire in 2018. Rabbi Sinclair is now a maggid shiur at Ohr Somayach/Tannenbaum College of Judaic studies in Jerusalem and is a senior staff writer of the Torah internet publications Ohrnet and Torah Weekly. His articles have been published in The Jewish Observer, American Jewish Spirit, AJOP Newsletter, Zurich’s Die Jüdische Zeitung, South African Jewish Report and many others. Rabbi Sinclair was born in London, and lives with his family in Jerusalem. He was educated at St. Anthony’s Preparatory School in Hampstead, Clifton College, and Bristol University where he read Drama and English.
