About the Event

Join us before the program for a GSBC Social Half Hour beginning at 1:30pm ET. The presentation will begin at 2:00pm ET.

Anthropology is the study of humans, human behavior and societies in the past and present. Social anthropology and cultural anthropology study the norms and values of societies. This lecture will analyze genealogy from the anthropological point of view, trying to explain and demonstrate what, who, why, where, when and how genealogy is done. Presented by Daniel Horowitz, Genealogy and Translation Manager of MyHeritage.com.
 
Dedicated to Genealogy since 1986, Daniel was the teacher and the study guide editor of the family history project "Searching for my Roots" in Venezuela for 15 years. He was a board member of The International Association of Jewish Genealogy Societies (IAJGS) for 10 years, now is involved in several crowdsource digitzation and transcription projects, and holds a board-level position at The Israel Genealogy Research Association (IGRA). Since 2006 Daniel has been working at MyHeritage liaising with genealogy societies, bloggers, and media, as well as lecturing and attending conferences around the world.
 
This presentation will be held online using Zoom.
