Seder Ritual Committee

Biographical notes:

The Seder Ritual Committee was founded in 1952 by the American Jewish Congress and lead by the historian Israel Goldberg (Rufus Learsi). The task of the committee was to compose a prayer memorializing the suffering and persecution of the Holocaust. The Seder Ritual of Remembrance, the prayer they composed, was broadly distributed to various Jewish organizations, press, and synagogues.
