as a dream-come true. From his earliest years, he has always been
involved in Judaic studies and synagogue life. In fact, the Cantor's father,
Royal Rockman, retired after serving as the Cantor for 36 years at
Temple
Ohev Shalom in Colonia, NJ. Cantor Rockman attended yeshiva as a young boy
and the Jewish Theological Seminary program while in high school. During
his college days at Rutgers University, he prepared students for their
B'nai Mitzvot and continued to do so at Congregation B'nai Tikvah. He most
recently held the position of Assistant Principal of Religious Education at
Temple Beth El in Somerset, NJ. To further hone his Cantorial skills,
The Cantor now studies with
Chazzan Leon Lissek, a retired Cantor from
B'nai Amoona,
a large St. Louis congregation. Cantor Rockman lives with his wife Stacey, their daughter, Bashe, and son, Rafi, in North Brunswick.
