Shmuel Szteinhendler, a rabbi in Santiago, Chile, is considered the current Chief Rabbi of Cuba and one of the most notable Rabbis in Latin America.[1][2][3]
Szteinhendler was born in Argentina and trained as a Conservative rabbi in Buenos Aires.[4] He started visiting Cuba regularly since 1992, operating from his base in Guadalajara, Mexico, and oversaw a revival of the Jewish culture there, serving as an informal spiritual head of the Jewish community in Cuba.[5][6][7] Szteinhendler's visits to Cuba were sponsored by the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee.[7][8]
