BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH top
Edgar E. Siskin was born in Edinburgh, Scotland on September 14, 1907. He spent his boyhood and attended preparatory school in Portsmouth, England prior to moving with his family to America in 1921. After arriving in New York, the Siskin family settled in Chicago, Illinois where Edgar's father, himself a rabbi, was elected rabbi of a newly formed local congregation. In 1923, Siskin enrolled in and began attending the Hebrew Union College in Cincinnati, Ohio. In 1929, at the age of 21, Siskin became the youngest graduate ever at HUC and was ordained as a rabbi. In addition, while at HUC Siskin attended the University of Cincinnati and received his B.A. from there in 1928. Shortly after his ordination as a rabbi Siskin was asked by Congregation Mishkan Israel in New Haven, Connecticut, one of the oldest (founded 1840) and most prestigious Reform congregations in the country, to serve as interim rabbi. A short time later they invited him to become their permanent rabbi. While in New Haven, Siskin attended Yale University and earned his Ph.D., in anthropology, in 1941. Later that year he was appointed Visiting Fellow in Anthropology at Yale, serving in that capacity. World War II was raging when Siskin enlisted in the U.S. Naval Chaplaincy in 1943. He was transferred into the U.S. Marine Corps and served overseas with the First Marine Division as Jewish chaplain (the first rabbi ever to be designated so) from 1943 to 1946. Siskin participated in the landings at Peleliu and Okinawa and finished his overseas duty in China. Following his return from overseas Siskin resumed his duties as rabbi at Congregation Mishkan Israel and was also appointed lecturer with rank of Assistant Professor in Anthropology at Yale in 1947. In 1948 Siskin accepted a call to become rabbi at North Shore Congregation Israel in Glencoe, Illinois. He served as rabbi there until 1972 and is currently Rabbi Emeritus. While rabbi at North Shore Congregation Israel Siskin was very active in the religious and civic live of Glencoe and the Chicago area. He served as president of the Chicago Board of Rabbis and of the Chicago Association of Reform Rabbis. He also served as a member of the Alumni Association of HUC-JIR and was on the Committee to Study the Disorders of Convention Week in Chicago in 1968. Siskin authored two major articles, in addition to many smaller articles for journals and periodicals: "The Impact of the Peyote Cult Upon Shamanism Among the Washo Indians", 1941; and "The Impact of American Culture Upon the Jew:, 1952. Siskin married the former Lillian Margolin of Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1946. They have three childres; Jonathan Daniel, Joshua Michael and Sharon.

The EDGAR E. SISKIN PAPERS (1928-1977) describe the rabbinical career of Dr. Edgar E. Siskin, a rabbi for over fifty years. The collection includes sermons, articles, prayers, eulogies, notes, correspondence, congregational records and tape recordings. The papers are divided into four series: A. WRITINGS B.

The CONGREGATIONAL RECORDS series is also divided into two sub-series: 1. Congregation Mishkan Israel, New Haven, Connecticut and Sub-Series 2. North Shore Congregation Israel, Glencoe, Illinois. The WRITINGS series (1928-1977) Sub-Series 1. Sermons consists of six Hollinger boxes of sermons.
