 HaRav Nachman Bulman, zt’’l: A Passionate Life - Jewish Media Resources
Rav Bulman’s father Meir had already buried two wives and two children in Europe and his mother was in her mid-40s when they wrote to the Imrei Emes of Gur for a berachah that they should yet be blessed with children.
Rav Bulman implanted in the unpromising soil of rural Virginia, the Hirschian Austritt principle of eschewing all connection of anything that smacked of heresy.
Who but Rav Bulman could have so quickly grasped the nature of someone to whom he was speaking for the first time, or could have known where to direct the young man so that he would feel the decision to abandon his career plans was his own and not forced upon him.

 Rabbi Nachman Bulman: A Passionate Life - Jewish Media Resources
Rabbi Nachman Bulman, whose shloshim was marked this week, was one of those seminal influences in my life.
Rabbi Bulman, however, directed me to the last chapter, in which Sklare describes the failure of Conservative Judaism as a spiritual movement, concluding: "steady erosion of observance among Conservative Jews." Conservative rabbis’ halachic role is confined to "taking a poll of their membership" and writing post-hoc justifications for their congregants’ behavior.
A woman approached him at a Torah Umesorah convention whom he had last seen a quarter of a century earlier when he was a young rabbi in Newport News, Virginia, and she was a teenager in NCSY (National Council of Synagogue Youth).

 Ohr Somayach :: Harav Nachman Bulman :: "Rebbie"
His teaching style was alive and vibrant with active threads, weaving the historical evolutions of societies and ideologies into a fabric of context that brought forth the significance of Jewish belief and action in ways that forced us to experience the drama and, more importantly, the spiritual battle we were engaged in as Jews.
I visited Rabbi Bulman at his home in Sanhedria Murchevet many times during those years, to talk about Jewish life and to better understand how my own life could be reassessed and directed to the path of Torah living.
Although I had heard Rabbi Bulman speak of Hirschian philosophy many times, his extensive appreciation of these philosophical threads and their manifestation in the Breuer’s community was penetrating.

Rav Bulman said that if you ask people "When did the first World War begin?" they will answer reflexively "1914".
However, Rav Bulman says, that is the wrong answer.

 Can a gay man halachically wear a Tallit Gadol and Kittel?
Can a gay man who will likely never be married wear a Tallit Gadol during Shacharit and a Kittel during Rosh Hashonah, Yom Kippur, and for those who have that custom, on the night of Pesach?
Rabbi Shmuel Gelbrad in his Otzer Taamei Haminhagim (Rite and Reason in English, translated by Rabbi Nachman Bulman and published by Mifal Rashi Publishing) brings down that the majority of Ashkenazic communities are accustomed that men may wear a tallit gadol only after they get married and brings several reasons for this custom.
He similarly explains that this is the custom as well with regard to a kittel though he avoids directly dealing with the reason of why only married men wear one.

 Reviews - Rabbi Ingram's Homepage
Abraham Chill's groundbreaking work in this genre appeared some years ago, and the last year has seen two further accessible, if contrasting, additions to minhag literature.
The modern classic Otzar Ta'amei ha-Minhagim by S. Gelbard appeared a year ago under the two-volume title "Rite and Reason" translated by Rabbi Nachman Bulman of Far Rockaway, New York (reviewed earlier this year in the AJN).
Now Professor Daniel Sperber's six-volume classic Minhagei Yisrael has spawned the slim one-volume "Why Jews Do What They Do" ably (for the most part) translated by Yaakov Elman.
