Evelyn Torton Beck
Evelyn Torton Beck (born January 18, 1933) has been described as "a scholar, a teacher, a feminist, and an outspoken Jew and lesbian". Until her retirement in 2002 she specialized in women's studies, Jewish women's studies[1][2] and lesbian studies at the University of Maryland, College Park.[3]
Beck has published a number of essays and books on Judaism. She came to wider prominence in 1982 with her book, Nice Jewish Girls: A Lesbian Anthology, a compilation of poems, essays, reminiscences and short stories,[2] believed to be the first published collection of works by lesbian Jewish women in the United States.
