Born in The Bronx, Norman Meskin has lived in Forest Hills, New York, for almost 40 years. He graduated from Yeshiva University High School for Boys in Manhattan and from Yeshiva College, earning a BA degree in Psychology. He studied Industrial Psychology at the graduate level at New York University and has worked professionally in that field, in several management positions in industry, and as an instructor of Management and Organizational Behavior at the college level.
For the past two decades he has labored simultaneously in the field of Jewish education - both formal and informal - where he has developed a reputation for being a consummate speaker, teacher, and chavrutah (learning partner). He has delivered lectures, shiurim, and divrei Torah in a variety of settings-to a vast array of different audiences-covering a wide range of Judaic topics.
Norman has served as Scholar-in-Residence for an intensive Israel "experience" for American Jewish educators and has written and aided in the development of innumerable Bar and Bat Mitzvah speeches and divrei Torah - both for the celebrants themselves as well as for their parents and other family members.
He and his wife, Cheryl, are the proud parents of two grown daughters and their spouses and the "proudest" grandparents of six delicious grandchildren. The Meskins reside in Jerusalem.
