Dobele / Dobeln
Born on 10 Marcheshvan 5670 (25 October 1909) in Alt-Autz, to his father who was the rabbi there.
He served as rabbi in Dobele from 12 Menachem Av 5699 (9 August 1938).
In November 1940 he submitted a request to the authorities to be released from the position of city rabbi due to his studies at the local university.
