The Jewish Observer (JO) was an American Orthodox Jewish monthly magazine published by Agudath Israel of America, from 1963 until 2009.[1]

The magazine was founded by Moshe Sherer, and the first issue was released in September 1963. Ernst L. Bodenheimer served as chairman of the editorial board,[2] and was replaced by Joseph Elias after his death. The editor for the first seven seasons was Nachman Bulman, later Yaakov Jacobs, and from 1970[3] until it ended publication was Nisson Wolpin.[4]

It was printed nine months a year; the January and February issues were combined, and there were no issues in July or August. The magazine discussed current topics through a Haredi viewpoint.[4]

Contributors to the Jewish Observer included Avi Shafran, Zalman I. Posner, Mendel Weinbach, Nosson Scherman,[5] Aaron Twerski, Aryeh Kaplan, Jonathan Rosenblum, Bernard Fryshman, Yitzchok Adlerstein, Yakov Horowitz and Yitzchok Lowenbraun.
