Everyone's Rosh Yeshiva: The Life & Travels of Rav Shmuel Rozovsky

Mishpacha Magazine, 2021

Rav Shmuel Rozovsky was born in the Eastern Europe of 1913, but his name remains on the lips of virtually every yeshiva student in 2021.

He was one of the prime pillars of the postwar rejuvenation of the yeshiva world, a product of Europe’s finest yeshivos who helped transform a tiny group of undervalued yeshiva bochurim into Bnei Brak’s mighty Torah bastion. More than four decades after his passing, students, assistants, and the American hosts of “everyone’s rosh yeshiva” share their personal memories of Rav Shmuel Rozovsky
