Forward Memories
Used to run down to the corner for bubbe and zayde’s paper? Picked up lessons for life from the Bintel Brief? Found your truly beloved through a shadkhan’s ad? Had a moment pictured in the Rotogravure? If you’ve got a Forverts tale to tell, we want to hear it.
This year the Forward turns 110, and to celebrate we’re publishing an anniversary issue on April 6, complete with a special section dedicated to readers’ personal memories involving the Forward and the Forverts.

Hello, fellow Forward reader! I’m Joel Brown, a Forward reader and supporter for more than 15 years, and currently the chair of the board of directors.
I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.
The Forward is committed to bringing you unbiased, nuanced Jewish news. From my position as board chair, I see an exciting future as we expand our position as the definitive independent voice of contemporary American Judaism.
— Joel Brown, Forward board chair
