Meir Zvi Bergman
At the age of 11, he began studying at Yeshiva Tefarat Zion with Rabbi Michal Yehuda Lipkowitz. During his studies he stayed for about two years in the house of the "Chazon Ish" with whom he studied. After that, he studied at Yeshiva Lomza in Petach Tikva with Rabbi Reuven Katz, the overseer Rabbi Eliyahu Doshnitzer and Rabbi Elazar Menachem Man Shach - who later became his father-in-law. At Yeshiva Lomza he studied in company with his friend Rabbi Chaim Kanievsky, who later said that he studied with 'Rabbi Meir' (as he called Rabbi Bergman) more than twenty tractates in study!
