BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH

top

Levi Arthur Olan was born in Cherkassy, Russia on March 22, 1903 to Max and Bessie (Leshinsky) Olan. He came to the United States with his family in 1906 and became a naturalized U.S. citizen in 1912.

Olan attended the University of Rochester from 1921 to 1923, then transferred to the University of Cincinnati, earning a B.A. degree in 1925. He was ordained a rabbi, in Cincinnati, at the Hebrew Union College in 1929.

Following ordination Olan became the rabbi at Temple Emanu-El in Worcester, Massachusetts. He remained in Worcester until 1949 when he moved to Dallas, Texas to become rabbi at Temple Emanu-El there. He remained in Dallas for the remainder of his career and was named Rabbi Emeritus in 1970.

Olan was very active in community affairs, both in Worcester and in Dallas. He served on numerous boards and agencies, including, the Boy Scouts of America, the Jewish Welfare Federation, the Jewish Family Service, the American Red Cross, the Worcester Biological Foundation and the New England Conference of Jewish Social Agencies, among many others. He also was a lecturer at the Perkins School of Theology of Southern Methodist University in Dallas, beginning in 1952, an adjunct professor at the University of Texas at Arlington, beginning in 1971, and a visiting lecturer at Texas Christian University, beginning in 1976.

The two most prestigious positions held by Olan, however, were his appointment by then Texas governor John Connally to a seat on the Board of Regents of the University of Texas in 1963, a position he held until 1969, and his election and tenure as president of the Central Conference of American Rabbis from 1967 to 1969.

Olan is widely renowned as a theologian and has authored numerous monographs, including: "The Philosophy of Liberal Judaism" (1942); "Rethinking the Liberal Religion" (1948); "On the Nature of Man" (1949); "Judaism and Modern Theology" (1955); "Reinhold Niebuhr and the Hebraic Spirit" (1956); and "Judaism and Immortality."

Olan married Sarita Messer on June 9, 1931. They had three children: Elizabeth (Mrs. James Hirsch), Frances and David.

Levi A. Olan died in Dallas, Texas on October 17, 1984 at the age of 81.
