Yitskhok Rudashevski

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yitskhok Rudashevski (1927 - 1943) was a young Jewish teenager who lived in the Vilna Ghetto during the 1940s. He wrote a diary from June 1941 to April 1943 which details his life and struggles living in the ghetto. He was most likely murdered in the liquidation of September 1943, probably at Ponary. His diary was discovered in 1944 by his cousin. The diary was published in 1973 by the Ghetto Fighters' House publisher in Israel.
