The San Diego Jewish Journal is a Jewish magazine headquartered in Sorrento Valley in San Diego, California. It was founded in October 2001 by Dr. Mark Moss and Mark Edelstein, and first published in December 2001. [1] Their intent was to create a magazine that spoke to all Jewish movements and traditions. In 2007, the magazine served 19,000 subscribers in San Diego, Palm Springs, and Temecula Valley. [2] Mark Moss [3] and Mark Edelstein [4] are the publishers.

In 2007, the San Diego Jewish Times, a biweekly newspaper with which it had competed, with about 16,000 subscribers, ceased publication after 27 years. [2]

The San Diego Jewish Journal won a Simon Rockower Award in 2015 [5] and another in 2016. [6]
