Rakhil Grinshpun was the daughter of Leib Pokrass (d. 1932) and Shendl Pokrass (d. 1949, Orenburg).

In 1925, she graduated from an FZO (Factory and Workshop Education) school in Kyiv with a specialisation in printing. Until 1934, she worked as a printer at a linen factory in Kyiv. From 1934 to 1965, she was a homemaker.
