How to map the history of Jewish life in the Valley of the Sun?
Just take a look at the Jewish places that crisscross its breadth and the names of those who helped put them on the community's grid. The institutions were built not only of brick and mortar but also of the commitment and generosity of those whose names are inscribed on their walls. Here are just a few of the points on the Jewish map and the people who helped put them there.

In preparing for this Jewish News 60th anniversary special issue, staff members have enjoyed learning more about our community's history by poring through the archives of the last 60 years. From the first issue, on Jan. 15, 1948, the newspapers tell the community's history. Some names and faces are familiar and some stories seem to repeat themselves through the years. On these next few pages, is a recap of six decades of Jewish News. We hope that you enjoy reading through highlights of our community's history as much as we enjoyed finding them.

Constancy and change

For the past several weeks, our staff has been poring joyfully through the treasure trove of 60 years of Jewish News, and finding riches at every turn of the page. In the 60 pages of this 60th anniversary issue, we offer our readers just a taste of the precious gems we have uncovered.
Our staff members range in age from 22 to 67, and among us are Valley natives and newcomers. And so our past issues offer a walk down memory lane for only a few of us. For most, it's been a voyage of discovery.
