Pini Dunner

Rabbi Pini Dunner hails from a prominent European rabbinic family that can trace its way back over many centuries. Following his yeshiva studies in England, the United States and Israel, Rabbi Dunner majored in Jewish History at University College London. In 1998, with the enthusiastic support of Chief Rabbi Jonathan Sacks, Rabbi Dunner set up and led the trailblazing Saatchi Synagogue in London.

Rabbi Dunner is an acknowledged expert on antiquarian Hebrew books and manuscripts, and is frequently consulted by libraries, academics, dealers, and private collectors. He also regularly lectures on Jewish history-related topics, and has a large following on YouTube. In the Summer of 2011 Rabbi Dunner moved to Los Angeles together with his wife and family to take up a position at Yeshiva University High School for Boys (YULA). In 2013, Rabbi Dunner was appointed Senior Rabbi at YINBH Beverly Hills Synagogue, and he now resides in Beverly Hills.
