Biography
Thane Rosenbaum (born 1960) is an American novelist, essayist, and Distinguished University Professor. He is the director of the Forum on Life, Culture, & Society, hosted by Touro College. Rosenbaum is also the Legal Analyst for CBS News Radio and appears frequently on cable television news programs.
Rosenbaum was born in New York City, in Washington Heights, and grew up in Miami Beach, Florida, where his parents moved when he was nine years old. He is a child of Holocaust survivors. His mother had been in Majdanek, his father in various concentration camps, including Auschwitz. Their experiences in the Nazi death camps were not discussed within the household, but the subject has shaped Rosenbaum’s career and writing.
In 2014, Rosenbaum was criticized for an article in the Wall Street Journal where critics believe that he justified Israel’s killing of Palestinian children whose parents are loyal to Hamas.
In January 2019, Martin Lewis and his family left Saatchi Shul in London over Rosenbaum’s ‘polemical’ Shabbat speech.
In February 2019, he was criticized for his comments on a talk show, where he implied that Arab Muslims who believe in a strict adherence to Sharia law probably don’t belong in the United States because their views are incompatible with American democracy, and will not adapt to the United States’ political, pluralistic, and liberal culture.
