Zvika Klein

Zvika Klein is the Editor-in-Chief of The Jerusalem Post and the paper's former Jewish World analyst. He's considered one of the world's top journalists specializing in Jewish Diaspora affairs. Klein was formerly a correspondent for Israel's Makor Rishon and Maariv newspapers. In 2015, Klein's article, titled "10 hours of fear and loathing in Paris" became viral, and his video, showing a 10-hour walk in Paris wearing a Kippah, received millions of views. Born in Chicago, Klein made aliyah to Israel as a child. He served as advisor to Israel's president's office on Israel-Jewish diaspora relations and received 3 journalism awards: “B’nai B’rith World Center Award for Journalism Recognizing Excellence in Diaspora Reportaģe” in 2013 and 2019, and JDC 2014 Smolar Journalism Award.
