Keynote Speaker

Bio

​

Nesenoff was an anti-bias consultant for the U.S. Justice Department’s Civil Rights Monitors Office. His creative award-winning films have been screened by numerous venues including the Sundance Film Festival. He was the publisher and editor-in-chief of The Jewish Star newspaper in New York and The Jerusalem Observer in Israel.

 

David Nesenoff has spoken in over 700 Chabad Houses worldwide and was the keynote speaker on Gimmel Tammuz for an audience of thousands in Buenos Aires Argentina and at Yale University’s global symposium on anti-Semitism. He received the National Jewish Hero Award from the Rohr Jewish Learning Institute.

 

Nesenoff’s interview with journalist and dean of the Washington press corps Helen Thomas at the White House caused her international demise. She was banished from her front-row seat and journalism after her 60-year career of covering every president since Eisenhower. The interview and its aftermath also had a striking effect on Israel, international media, and anti-Semitism and personally transformed the life of David Nesenoff.

 

David Nesenoff travels the globe delivering highly sought-after messages about Israel, the Jewish people, anti-Semitism, peace in our homes and lives, women in Judaism, the Sabbath, Chasidism, and Chabad. From Israel to the U.S., Canada, Australia, Ireland, England, Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay, and Argentina, David's audiences have reviewed his presentation, or one-man show, as “hilarious” “mind-blowing” “uplifting” and “life-changing.”
