Eliezer Steinman (Hebrew: אליעזר שטיינמן; born 1892, died 7 August 1970) was a Russian-born Israeli writer, journalist and editor.
Starting in 1910, his works, in Yiddish and Hebrew, began to appear in newspapers such as "Rashaphim", "Ha-Shiluach" and "Ha-Tsefirah" and he earned a living by teaching.
During those years, he became associated with David Frischmann and Hayim Nahman Bialik, who worked to obtain his release from service in the Imperial Russian Army.
In 1924, Steinman emigrated with his family to Mandate Palestine and began working for the Hebrew Writers Union.
The magazine took its name from the Katuvim group founded by Steinman, Avraham Shlonsky and others to seek the renewal of Hebrew literature.
