Prominent Students
Rabbi Feinstein invested much time molding some of his select students to become leaders in Rabbinics and Halacha. Those students, over the years, spent countless hours a day serving as apprentices to their great Rabbi. Most are considered authorities in many areas of practical Halacha and Rabbinic and Talmudic academics. Some of those students are:
- Rabbi Nisson Alpert, (New York City)
- Rabbi J. David Bleich, (New York City)
- Rabbi Avrohom Blumenkrantz, (Far Rockaway, NY)
- Rabbi Dovid Feinstein, (New York), his son
- Rabbi Reuven Feinstein, (New York), his son
- Rabbi Moshe Dovid Tendler, (New York, NY), his son-in-law
- Rabbi Elimelech Bluth
- Rabbi Chaim Ganzweig

Famous quotes containing the words prominent and/or students:
“I should say that the most prominent scientific men of our country, and perhaps of this age, are either serving the arts and not pure science, or are performing faithful but quite subordinate labors in particular departments. They make no steady and systematic approaches to the central fact.... There is wanting constant and accurate observation with enough of theory to direct and discipline it. But, above all, there is wanting genius.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“We are students of words: we are shut up in schools, and colleges, and recitation-rooms, for ten or fifteen years, and come out at last with a bag of wind, a memory of words, and do not know a thing.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
