Maran the Gaon Rabbi Shmuel Halevi Wosner [1913-2015] one of Gedolei Hador, Pillar of Hora’ah. Most of the Morei Hora’ah and Poskim of the recent generation were his disciples or members of his Beis Din. He was a leading disciple of Maran the Maharam Shapiro of Lublin and the Mashgi’ach Rabbi Shimon of Zelichiv, Rabbi Shmuel David Unger of Nietra and Rabbi Yosef Elimelech Kahana of Ungvar.
On the advice of Maran the Chazon Ish, he was appointed the Rav of Zichron Meir. Already in his youth, Maran Kedosh Aharon of Belz said of his yeshiva and Beis Hora’ah that ‘four cubits of Halacha in our days are located in Zichron Meir with Rabbi Wosner’.
