Joseph Carlebach
(1882-1942), rabbi.

His father, Solomon Carlebach, was rabbi in Luebeck, Germany, for over 50 years. Joseph had a teaching career, opening a Hebrew high school in Kaunas (Kovno), Lithuania, during WW1. Later he became headmaster of the Talmud Torah high school in Hamburg and rabbi of Luebeck (1919-22), Altona (1927-37) and then of Hamburg. He is thought to have been the original of the rabbi depicted in Thomas Mann's novel, Dr. Faustus. He died in the Holocaust in a concentration camp near Riga. Carlebach wrote biblical commentaries and other Jewish studies.
