Rabbi Shlomo Heiman (1892–1944) was a Talmudist and yeshiva head active first in Eastern Europe and later in the United States. Born in Paritsh, in the Minsk region of present-day Belarus, to Rabbi Michel Heiman, he entered the yeshiva of Kamenets around age twelve and studied under Rabbi Baruch Ber Leibowitz, to whom he remained closely attached. After the First World War he delivered Talmudic lectures at the Ohel Torah yeshiva in Baranovich, associated with Rabbi Elchanan Wasserman. From 1927 to 1935, at the invitation of Rabbi Chaim Ozer Grodzenski, he headed the Ramailes yeshiva in Vilna. In 1935 Rabbi Shraga Feivel Mendlowitz brought him to New York to lead Mesivta Torah Vodaath, where he taught until his death. His Talmudic novellae were gathered posthumously as Chiddushei Rabbi Shlomo.
