Lomza: 28th Tishrei 1934
The writer one of the leaders of pre-war Polish-Lithuanian Jewry, was Rabbi of Lomzha. He was the step-son of R. Isaac Blaser of St. Petersburg (“Reb Itzele Peterburger”) the foremost disciple of R. Israel Salanter, and wrote annotations to his halachic work, Peri Yitzchak. He succeeded in fleeing Europe at the onset of World War II finding refuge in Shanghai. In 1941 R. Shatzkes arrived in the United States and accepted a post at the Rabbi Isaac Elchanan Theological Seminary of Yeshiva University, New York, where he served as a rosh yeshiva until his passing.
