Spector (Spektor) (née Weigman) Tuba Leibovna (15 April 1888, Uman District, Vinnytsia Region) — homemaker.

Tuba Spector was born into the family of Leyba Weigman (— 1917) and Maryam Weigman (— 1917). She completed four classes of a Jewish school and until 1909 lived with her parents. After marriage, she remained a homemaker.

In 1946, she moved to Latvia. From 1959, she worked as a home-based knitter at the knitwear factory “Māra” in Riga.

She married Khaskel Spector (1888, Vinnytsia Region — 1957, Riga). Their children were Donya Margolina (née Spector) (1912, Vinnytsia Region), Naum Spector (1914, Vinnytsia Region), Tsilya Spector (1917, Vinnytsia Region), Lev Spector (1920, Vinnytsia Region), and Mariya Rukh (née Spector) (1927, Odesa).

Her daughter Tsilya left for Poland in 1944 as the wife of a Polish citizen and in 1957 emigrated from Poland to Israel.

In 1964, Tuba Spector received permission to emigrate to Israel.
