About me
Caleb Sher holds an interdisciplinary humanities degree from the University of King's College, Halifax, as well as an MA with a certificate in Jewish studies from the Centre for Comparative Literature at the University of Toronto. Following his MA, Caleb began a degree in information studies; however, he left this program to pursue work in the Yiddish realm—currently, he is the Richard S. Herman Senior Fellow in Bibliography at the Yiddish Book Center. Beyond his interest in and (rapidly) growing collection of Yiddish books—the material anchors of Yiddish's literary and cultural history—Caleb gets excited about public humanities, printing and print culture, and good memes (especially in Yiddish).
