Dr. Daniel Gordis is Senior Vice President and the Koret Distinguished Fellow at Shalem College. The author of more than ten books, Gordis is a regular columnist for both the Jerusalem Post and for Bloomberg View.
Gordis' writing has appeared in magazines and news-papers including the New York Times, The New Re-public, the New York Times Magazine, Azure, Com-mentary and Foreign Affairs; and his books have re-ceived numerous awards. He won the National Jew-ish Book Award for Saving Israel, and two of his books were Finalists for the National Jewish Book Award.
Gordis' newest book is a history of the State of Isra-el entitled ISRAEL: A CONCISE HISTORY OF A NA-TION REBORN. Ambassador Dennis Ross, reflecting on the book, wrote, "When I am asked 'Is there one book to read about Israel?' I now have an answer." Ari Shavit wrote, "Like Israel itself, Daniel Gordis's Israel: A Concise History of a Nation Reborn is auda-cious, intensive and unique." Yossi Klein HaLevi wrote, "Daniel Gordis has written a luminous history .... Gordis gives us the soul of Israel, and helps ex-plain why the most hated country on the planet is also among the most beloved."
Professor Alan Dershowitz has called Gordis “one of Israel’s most thoughtful observers.” The Forward has called him “one of the most respected Israel an-alysts around.” In 2014, the Jerusalem Post listed him as one of the world’s 50 most influential Jews, while Jeffrey Goldberg of the Atlantic has written, “If you asked me ‘of all the people you know, who cares the most about the physical, moral and spiritual health of Israel?’ I would put the commentator and scholar Gordis at the top of the list.”
