Rabbi Zvi Pesach Frank (1873-1961) was the son of Rabbi Yehuda Leib. He was a great posek in his generation, a founder of the Chief Rabbinate, member of the Chief Rabbinical Council and Ashkenazi Chief Rabbi of Jerusalem between 1936-1961. Born in Kovna (Kaunas), he studied at Telz and Slobodka yeshivot, and after moving to Israel continued his studies at the Torat Chayim yeshiva. In 1908 he was appointed a dayan at the Ashkenazi Prushi Beit Din in Jerusalem.
In 1918 he was appointed Av Beit Din, and after the death of Gaon Rabbi Avraham Yitzhak HaKohen Kook he was appointed Chief Rabbi of Jerusalem, but he refused to serve simultaneously as Chief Rabbi of Israel. Thousands of his tshvuot on halacha have been printed in his series of books, Shut Har Zvi.
