A pioneer of applying modern translation techniques to ancient languages, Dr. Joel M. Hoffman brings the unappreciated wisdom of ancient texts to modern audiences. He graduated from Brandeis University summa cum laude, with departmental honors, and as a member of Phi Beta Kappa. He spent a year studying and teaching at the Technion in Haifa, Israel, and then earned a PhD in linguistics from the University of Maryland at College Park, one of the nation's top programs. He is a popular speaker who has been invited to appear before audiences on all six inhabitable continents (and would welcome inquiries from Antarctica so he can complete the set). He is fluent in English and Modern Hebrew and can converse, to varying degrees, in another 11 languages. Dr. Hoffman lives in Westchester, NY.
