BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH - RABBI HILLEL COHN
Rabbi Hillel Cohn served as rabbi of Congregation Emanu EI in San Bernardino from 1963 to
2001. He is now Rabbi Emeritus of the congregation. A native of Germany, he was brought to the
United States as an infant by his parents who were refugees from Nazism. Rabbi Cohn grew up in
the Pacific Northwest and Southern California. He received a B.A. in Political Science from UCLA
in 1959. His rabbinical training was received at Hebrew Union College in Los Angeles and
Cincinnati where he was ordained as a rabbi in 1963 and received a Master of Arts degree. He
earned a Doctor of Ministry degree from the Claremont School of Theology in 1984 specializing in
ethics and communication. In 1988 he was awarded an honorary Doctor of Divinity degree by the
Hebrew Union College.
Rabbi Cohn has been active in many community organizations in the San Bernardino area. He has
been a member of the Institutional Review Board for Research on Human Subjects at Loma Linda
University Medical Center and now serves on the Institutional Review Board at Arrowhead
Regional Medical Center.
Rabbi Cohn was the founding chairperson of the City of San Bernardino Human Relations
Commission and currently serves as a member of that commission. He produces and hosts "The
Many Faces of San Bernardino: Dialogues on Diversity", a regular half-hour program on KCSB
(Channel 3).
In 2001 Rabbi Cohn completed a two year term as Treasurer of the Central Conference of
American Rabbis, the national organization of reform rabbis. He has served as co-chair of its
CarenetlRapid Response committee and since 2004 has been editor of the CCAR Newsletter, the
montWy publication of all reform rabbis in the world. He has served as president of the Pacific
Association of Reform Rabbis and as a member of the Board of Trustees of the Union of American
Hebrew Congregations. He is a past-president of the San Bernardino Clergy Association, the
interdenominational ministerial group of the area. He is currently a member of the board of the
National Association of Retired Reform Rabbis.
In 1996 Rabbi Cohn was one of 5,000 Americans honored for being a Community Hero by carrying
the Olympic Torch. He recently received the "Man in the Spirit of Martin Luther King" Award from
the African-American Churches of the Inland Empire and also received the Dale Evans-Roy Rogers
Award for a Lifetime of Commitment to the Spirituality of Children from the Loma Linda
University Medical Center. In 2001 he was the recipient of the Leaders of Distinction Lifetime
Achievement Award from the Business Press of the Inland Empire.
A frequent participant on radio and television programs, Rabbi Cohn and Dr. William Loveless co-
hosted and produced "Options", a series of televised conversations on contemporary moral and
spiritual issue on the International 7th Day Adventist Television Network.
Since 2002 Rabbi Cohn has served as the interim rabbi of Adat Ari EI, a reform synagogue in Las
Vegas and writes a regular column for the Las Vegas Israelite. He is a member of the Southern
Nevada Board of Rabbis.
Rabbi Cohn and his wife Rita live in San Bernardino. They have two children, Elana Cohn-
