Biography
Samuel (Sammy) Gronemann was the son of the chief rabbi of Hannover.[1]
Gronemann was the chief judge of the Zionist Congress Court and founder of its Court of Honour (1921–1946).[2] He was a major contributor to the satirical magazine Schlemiel published in 1903–1905 and 1919–1924.
In 1933, after the rise of the Nazis, he fled to Paris with his wife, Sonja and immigrated to Mandate Palestine in 1936.[3] In 1937, the Jewish National Fund sent him to France to speak about the plight of the Jews in Palestine thanks to his knowledge of French and French culture.[4]
