R. Menachem Mendel Schneerson (1902–1994), was one of the most influential Jewish leaders of the twentieth century. He was born in the town of Nikolaev, Russia to R. Levi Yitzchak and Rebbetzin Chana Schneerson. Known as a great genius, by the time he was seventeen, he had mastered the entire Talmud, and went on to receive Semicha from R. Yosef Rosen; the Rogatchover Gaon and R. Yechiel Yaakov Weinberg (Sridei Aish). In 1928, he married the daughter of the sixth Lubavitcher Rebbe, R. Yosef Yitzchak Schneerson, whom he ultimately succeeded as Rebbe. In that capacity, he tirelessly dedicated himself to world Jewish outreach and he succeeded in establishing Chabad centers all over the world.
