Tamara Ruth Kolton (née Feldstein; Hebrew: תמרה קולטון; born March 13, 1970) is an American non-denominational rabbi and clinical psychologist. She was the first person ordained as a member of the Humanistic Jewish movement.[2] Over time, her religious position evolved from agnosticism to a more spiritual perspective that drove her away from Humanistic Judaism.[3][4] Kolton later became known for her controversial feminist reinterpretation of the Biblical Eve, which has received both support and criticism from other religious and spiritual writers.[4]
