Born and raised in Boston (and a passionate Boston Red Sox fan), Rabbi Dobrusin was ordained as a rabbi in 1982 and came to Ann Arbor in 1988. In addition to serving two congregations, Rabbi Dobrusin has been active in many causes including serving as a board member and national co-chair of T’ruah: the Rabbinic Call to Human Rights. Since retiring from the pulpit in 2018, he has continued teaching and supporting community institutions including serving as a member of the board of directors of the International House of Ann Arbor and volunteering at the Humane Society of Huron Valley. He is also a Volunteer Zoo Educator at the Toledo Zoo. Rabbi Dobrusin and his wife Ellen are the parents of two adult children and their family includes Sami, a sweet mixed breed rescue dog and two gentle cats, Spot and Ozzie.
