Biography

Elliott Michael Frank was born February 4, 1940, in Worcester, Massachusetts, the son of Abraham S. Frank (died 1984) and Sylvia Frank (died 2001). He married Marcia Davis, who is a daughter of Dr. Benjamin L. Davis (died 1992) and Adele B. Davis (died 2005).

Rabbi Frank grew up in Worcester. He first studied Aramaic with Rav Michael Bernstein and after that he studied in Yeshiva University New York. He earned a BA in English and a M.S. in Religious Education and semicha ("rabbinic ordination") at Yeshiva University under Yeshivath Rabbenu Yitzhak Elhanan. He was a member of the kollel, which was headed by Rav Aharon Lichtenstein. He taught together with Rabbi Nathan Kamenetsky at Yeshiva of Shapell College of Jewish Studies in Jerusalem and taught Jewish studies at yeshivoth in New York. He studied also at the Telshe Yeshiva in Wickliffe, Ohio, also known as the Rabbinical College of Telshe, (commonly referred to as Telz Yeshiva or Telz in short). In 1971 he went to Israel, where he lives in Sanhedria HaMurhevet 109/22 in Jerusalem and teaches gemara and Aramaic. In Israel he worked together with Rav Professor Ezra Zion Melamed.
