When he was young, he was known as Rabbi Feivel Brisker. When the Rosh Yeshivah of Mir, Rabbi Eliezer Yehuda Finkel, suggested Rav Feivel for the sister of Rabbi Shmuel Greineman, brother-in-law of the Chazon Ish, the Chazon Ish spoke with him in learning to get to know him. He said, “I didn’t believe that I could find this type of bachur in the yeshivah world.” He later moved to Eretz Yisroel and was masghiach in the Lomza Yeshivah. ****** Brisk, undated. 21x28 cm.
