Herman Naftali Neuberger (26 June 1918 – 21 October 2005)[1] was an Orthodox Jewish rabbi who for over fifty years was the leader of Ner Israel Rabbinical College.
[citation needed] He studied in Baltimore at Yaakov Yitzchok Ruderman's yeshiva in a local synagogue, named Ner Israel.
Neuberger brought a small group of young Iranian Jews to the yeshiva with the intent that they would go back to Iran after receiving their rabbinical degrees to become educators.
[3][6] Neuberger and his friend Rabbi Moshe Sherer started the Association of Advanced Rabbinical and Talmudic Schools to help yeshivas gain recognition amongst American Colleges.
[3] Another major accomplishment of Rabbi Neuberger was gathering married bachurim (young yeshiva-men) learning in Kollel Avodas Levi, and sending them out to open outreach kollelim around the country.
