Eliezer Steinbarg (Yiddish: אֱליעזֶר שטיינבארג Eliezer Shteynbarg;[1] 2 March 1880 – 27 March 1932) was a Yiddish-school teacher and Yiddish poetic fabulist.
He became a notable figure in the Yiddish culture of Romania, and his works were widely recited.
[3] His first published work Mesholim, a book of fables, did not appear until shortly after his death, when it became a bestseller.
[4] Selected works of Eliezer Steinbarg can be found in the bilingual The Jewish Book of Fables (2003), translated by Curt Leviant.
The Eliezer Steinbarg Jewish Cultural Society in Chernivtsi is named after him.
