"Amy wows audiences with her wit and wisdom. She brings life to learning by making our humanity the common denominator."
Stuart Mellan

"We brought Amy to Metrowest as our weekend scholar-in-residence for our Women's Shabbaton. Amy's special gift is the way that she can connect with everyone in the room, no matter what their age or background. She teaches Jewish ideas, values and spirituality in a way that is accessible to everyone. She is bright, witty and extremely personable. Any community that brings Amy in to speak will be fortunate to have her."

"Amy Hirshberg Lederman was a featured speaker at our congregation on several occasions and each event was an overwhelming success. Her scholarship, spirituality and personal charisma, when combined with her humor and keen intellect, guarantee an exceptional learning experience for any group, board retreat or Shabbaton."
Bonnie Graff

"Amy brought her warmth, charm, and personal stories to our Jewish community. Participants - from ages 24 to 84 – shared a wonderful evening, laughing and crying, as she brought us back to our grandparent’s homes and childhood memories almost forgotten. 'My Grandmother’s Candlesticks: Passing the Flame from One Generation to the Next' touched the hearts of every generation."
Taffi Ney,
Associate Executive Director
Jewish Federation of the Lehigh Valley, PA

"Amy is able to touch the hearts and minds of those she teaches with her passion and love of Jewish wisdom, history, and texts. Through her humor, knowledge and sensitivity to others, she lays a foundation for meaningful discussion and self-inquiry, enabling others to discover personal meaning in Jewish rituals, traditions and texts. I highly recommend her, especially for Shabbaton retreats!"
