David Solomon is an educator, scholar and writer. Perhaps best known for his teaching in the area of Jewish Studies, Solomon has also made contributions in art and media.

In early 2005 Solomon devised his popular lecture, The Whole of Jewish History in One Hour inonehour.asp#history" target="_blank">http://inonehour.net/talks_inonehour.asp#history. By December 2006, he had launched a full and international educational initiative, known as The In One Hour Serieshttp://inonehour.net/default.asp, with The Whole of Jewish History in One Hour http://inonehour.net/talks_inonehour.asp#history continuing as the flagship presentation. The series comprises a catalogue of lectures, each of which provides basic introductions to a range of areas in _Jewish Studies, grounded in traditional Jewish sources and combined, in some cases, with original visual mapping techniques.

Solomon is unequivocal in his promotion of Jewish history and Hebrew as the two most essential areas of learning for the Jewish world today. He also decries educational approaches in which students remain dependent on teachers for access to Jewish ideas and texts. Solomon aims to provide students with the necessary tools to be able to take responsibility for their own Jewish education by having the ability to read Jewish texts directly (Hebrew) and to understand these sources in context (Jewish history).

Solomon holds degrees in Anthropology, English Literature and Jewish Studies, as well as Media Broadcasting. He also spent almost five years learning in yeshivot in both Israel and Australia. Solomon has lectured throughout the world on a range of topics, from Modern and Biblical Hebrew, to Kabbalah and Jewish history, as well as Anthropology of religion and Conceptual Art.

As part of this collaboration, Solomon created the fictional philosopher Jean-Bernard Klus and wrote two books, one in the name of Klus (The Handbook of the Finite Mind) and the other in the name of Klus’s student Jose Palermo (Jose Palermo and the College of Disciples).

Solomon has produced a number of short films which have received distinction in a range of fringe film festivals in London and worked at various times during the 1980s and 1990s as a radio producer and presenter for the _Australian Broadcasting Corporation and as an advertising copyrighter.
