(EJ, Chyet) Wise (1819-1900) , who was born in Bohemia and emigrated to the United States in 1843, was a Reform rabbi. Beginning as a rabbi in Albany, New York, Wise “introduc[ed] reforms such as mixed pews, choral singing, and confirmation, designed to improve public worship. ” Outside of his own congregations, he worked towards a unity of American Jews, and several unsuccessful attempts culminated in the Union of American Hebrew Congregations, and the establishment of Hebrew Union College.
