Well, to make a long story short, Art Garfunkel is Jewish!

Since Art Garfunkel's mother is Jewish, and in Orthodox Judaism and Conservative Judaism, those with a Jewish mother (or those who underwent a halakhic conversion) are considered Jewish, then that makes him Jewish. His father is Jewish too.

Art Garfunkel (whose full birth name is Arthur Ira Garfunkel) was born on November 5, 1941 in New York City, United States.

He is a Grammy-award winning American singer, poet, and Golden Globe-nominated actor best known for being one half of the folk duo Simon & Garfunkel.
