R. Ephraim Zalman Margulies of Brody (1761-1828) was known as one
of the leading Gaonim of his generation as well as a prolific writer of many
important Halachic works. He served for a while as the Rav of Uhaniv,
however he resigned the position and from then on declined to serve in the
Rabbinate although he was offered many prestigious positions including the
Chief Rabbinate of Frankfurt. He settled in Brody and taught a select group
of outstanding students. He was also well known as a wealthy man and is
often used as a classic example of Torah u’gedulah. His works include Bais
Ephraim, Tiv Gittin, Mateh Ephraim and others.
