Rabbi Pamela Frydman Baugh, founding rabbi and spiritual leader of Or Shalom Jewish Community in San Francisco for thirteen years, was the first woman president of OHALAH, the international association of Jewish renewal rabbis, where she presently serves as Administrative Director. Rabbi Pam brings a universal eclectic perspective to Jewish teachings. Her most courageous religious act was donning tefillin during morning prayers in the women’s section at the Wailing Wall in 1979.
