Meet Dori

Dori Jacob is so pleased to be joining Congregation Beth Israel as the B’nei Mitzvah Coordinator after moving to Portland from Oakland, CA last July. Prior to the pandemic, Dori was a resident & freelance Casting Director for several Bay Area Theatres including San Francisco Playhouse, Z Space and Marin Theatre Company and served as the Director of New Play Development for Magic Theatre in San Francisco. Growing up in an observant, Jewish home as the daughter of an Israeli parent, Dori has worked as a Hebrew school teacher, B’nei Mitzvah tutor, camp counselor and everything in between throughout her life, and feels incredibly grateful to have the opportunity to be a part of this vibrant CBI community here in PDX. Dori is a graduate of UC Santa Cruz and NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts.
