Hazzan Abraham “Abe” Lubin (born 1937) is a London-born American Conservative Jewish Hazzan and former President of the Cantors Assembly, who is the cantor emeritus at Congregation Beth El in Bethesda, Maryland.

Abraham Lubin was born in London in 1937. As a child, he returned with his parents to Israel, their birthplace. In 1950, his family returned to England, where he continued his education at the Etz Chaim Yeshivah in London and then the London School of Jewish Studies (then called Jews' College) Cantorial School, where he graduated as a Hazzan. He also received the Associate of the London College of Music Diploma (A.L.C.M.) from the London College of Music, a Bachelor of Music degree from the College Conservatory of Music of the University of Cincinnati, a Master of Music degree from DePaul University, and a Doctor of Music degree from the Jewish Theological Seminary of America.

Hazzan Lubin and his wife, Sandy, now live in Bethesda, Maryland. They are the parents of Dr. Harlan Lubin, Stephanie Lubin, and Sharyn Lubin Levitt, and the grandparents of eight grandchildren.

At age eight he sang solo with the Rivlin Choir in Jerusalem. During his school years, Hazzan Lubin sang in many leading synagogues in England and Scotland. At age thirteen, he conducted the services at leading synagogues in the area, and at age fifteen, he sang his first High Holy Day service. At seventeen he was Hazzan at the Jubilee Street Zionist Synagogue in London, and at nineteen he became Hazzan at the Bayswater Synagogue in London, where he was inducted into office by the Chief Rabbi Israel Brodie.
