Gottlieb (Gotlib) (née Brand) Sore Iosifovna (15 May 1917, Kremenchuk) — shop assistant.

In 1917, Sore Gottlieb’s parents relocated with their children to Tukums. From 1936 to 1937, she worked as a shop assistant in a dry goods store in Tukums, and from 1937 to 1941 in a similar store in Riga. In 1941, she was appointed manager of a shop.

Later that year, she was evacuated to Cheboksary, where she served as canteen manager for the Chuvash Highway Administration until 1945. Upon her return to Riga in 1945, she remained a homemaker until 1956.

From 1956 to 1957, she worked as a shop assistant for Riga’s Second City Industrial Trade Department. Between 1959 and 1960, she was employed as a labourer at the Dzintars Factory. From 1960 to 1962, she worked as a shop assistant in Store No. 39 of the Riga City Trade Administration, and from 1962 to 1965 as a labourer at the Riga Toy Factory.

She was married to Yakov Gotlib (1912, Valdemārpils). Their children were Basya Gotlib (born 1946, Riga) and Iosif Gotlib (born 1954, Riga).

Her parents, Iosif Brand and Taube Brand, and her siblings, Leiba Brand, Nosen Brand, Ruven Brand, and Mali Brand, all perished in the Holocaust in 1941–42.

In 1965, Sore Gotlib received permission to emigrate to Israel.
