R. Chaim Zanvil Abramowitz (1902-95), was one of the 20th-century’s great Chassidic Rabbis and considered a miracle worker. He hailed from Rybnitsa (now Moldova) and was a prominent follower of Rabbi Avrohom Matisyohu of Shtefanesht, grandson of R. Israel of Ruzhin. He remained in the Soviet Union living a fully religious life until 1970, when he moved to Israel and then the United States.
