Rabbi Hillel Baron grew up in Baltimore, but went to religious school in Montreal. He was ordained in 1984. After his ordination, Baron moved to Howard County to help found the The Lubavitch Center for Jewish Education, which now includes a school, which typically has 35 young students a year.
Baron has overseen the center's evolution from a small storefront to the county's only Orthodox Jewish synagogue.
