StoryForward seeks to create community through the telling and receiving of story. Join us each week as writer Dan Schifrin interviews artists and thinkers. StoryForward is a collaboration with the Jewish Community Library of San Francisco.

Dan Schifrin has taught creative writing at UC Berkeley and San Francisco State, and served as writer-in-residence at the Contemporary Jewish Museum. He is the author, among other things, of the play Sweet and Sour, the one-man show String Theory, and a forthcoming memoir about fatherhood and science fiction. His stories and essays have appeared in McSweeney’s, the Los Angeles Times and the San Francisco Chronicle. As part of a LABA Fellowship at the JCC of the East Bay, Schifrin is writing a play about medieval Jewish Spain and its influence on twenty-first-century America. He is also the founder of StoryForward, a new venture connecting story and community in trying times.
