Abraham Rhinewine

Abraham Rhinewine (1887-1932)[1][2][3] was a Polish-born, Canadian-Jewish editor, publisher and author, among the most prominent Jewish journalists in Canada during his time.

[4] He was raised as an Orthodox Jew in Mezhirech (Miedzyrzec), Poland and trained to be a rabbi, but at the age of 15, he became a socialist and, apparently after attempting to unionize his father's factory, was sent to England to continue his secular education.

[2] He later settled in North America, where he was to work briefly and unsuccessfully in the millinery industry in New York City.

He is the author of several books in Yiddish as well as English, as well as many journalistic articles in these languages, and was publisher and editor-in-chief of the Hebrew Journal (Der Yidisher Zshurnal),[5] a key Jewish newspaper in Toronto.
