Rabbi Eliezer Zalmanov hails from Brooklyn, NY. He graduated from the Central Lubavitch Yeshivah in Brooklyn, where he received his rabbinical ordination. He has been involved in religious outreach throughout the world, including Europe, Israel and South America. Before relocating to Northwest Indiana, he served as coordinating producer of the Living Torah video series, produced by Jewish Education Media.

Chanie Zalmanov, a proud Hoosier, is an Indianapolis native. Her parents, Rabbi Avrohom and Nini Grossbaum, have been directing Chabad-Lubavitch acitivities in the state of Indiana for a quarter century. She is a graduate of Beth Chana Teachers' Seminary in Safed, Northern Israel, and is an elementary-school teacher by trade.
The Zalmanovs moved to Munster to re-establish Chabad of Northwest Indiana in December 2003. Their combined experience, along with their devotion to bringing the Jewish message to every single Jew, is surely an asset to the community.
They are proud parents of Shayna, Mendy, Yudi and Dovber.
