Шаблон:Short description Helen Bar-Yaacov is an Uzbekistani-born American rabbi. She is the first ordained female rabbi in West Virginia (though there had been female student rabbis serving before being ordained previous to Bar-Yaacov's service.)[1] She began serving in West Virginia in 2002 at Temple Israel in Charleston.

From 2008 until 2013 she was the rabbi of Evansville's Temple Adath B'nai Israel.[2]

Bar-Yaacov was born in Uzbekistan, since her parents had fled Poland during World War II to escape the persecution of the Jews there.[3]

She grew up in Germany and Australia, and lived in Israel as a young woman, working as a tour guide and a teacher there.[4] She was ordained by the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion in New York in 2002.[5]
