Rabbi Tzvi Hirsch Shapira (1850 – 1913) was the son of Rabbi Shlomo Shapira, Av Beis Din of Munkatch, son of Rabbi Elazar Melntzhut, son of the Bnei Yissachar. A prized disciple of the Divrei Chaim of Sanz, he served as Av Beis Din and Admor of Munkatch beginning in year 1893. He was a strong opponent of the maskilim in Hungary and stood firmly against any perceived additions or changes to authentic Judaism. This eventually led him to oppose the establishment of Agudas Yisrael. His novellae are published in Darchei Teshuva on Shulchan Aruch Yoreh Deah, Tiferes Tzvi Responsa and many other sefarim.
