R. Aharon Yehuda Leib Steinman (1915-2017) was a leader of Orthodox Jewry, chairman of Moetzet Gedolei HaTorah of the Degel HaTorah party. He led the Lithuanian Torah Jewry in the last decades. He served as dean of the Chafetz Chaim yeshiva in Kfar Saba, and was reputedly held in high esteem by the Chazon Ish, who would stand up in his honor. In 1955, R. Kahaneman appointed him dean of the Ponevezh yeshiva for young boys and ten years later, he began concurrently serving as head of the Ponevezh Kollel. He later established other Torah institutions, standing at their helm, and spending his entire life disseminating Torah to the multitudes. He also served as dean of the Geon Yaakov yeshiva founded by his son-in-law R. Zev Berlin. On Chanukah eve 2017, he passed away at the age of 104, and his funeral was attended by hundreds of thousands.
