Michael Weis has been the Hazzan at HPCT-CAE since 2007.  He is a graduate of the H.L. Miller Cantorial School and College of Jewish Music at the Jewish Theological Seminary and also has received a Master's Degree in Jewish Education from the Davidson School of Education at JTS.

Originally from a secular home in the suburbs of Chicago, he graduated from Stanford University in 1986 with a degree in economics before pursuing an acting career in Los Angeles for several years. He later founded and operated a graphic design and printing company for thirteen years. His interest in becoming a cantor grew out of his volunteer experience leading services in a "traditional progressive" synagogue in L.A. where, for the first time as an adult, he was introduced to the depth and beauty of Jewish tradition, and fell in love with the sound of Jewish prayer.
