Inspired Judaica

A few years ago, when Jennifer Rivlin Roberts of Atlanta was engaged to be married, she registered for Judaica at a local shop, but toiled to select pieces that reflected her taste.



While most of us like to recount funny family stories from Seders past, cartoonist and illustrator Naava Katz, 32, of Montclair, N.J., tells her stories through Sederisms, Passover-themed cartoons such as this one. Katz discovered the art of cartooning in the 6th grade when two boys in her class were getting a lot of attention for a comic strip they were drawing. Taking a look at it, something clicked, and she went home and drew her own four-panel strip. She’s been at it ever since.
