Tuvia Borzykowski was born in Lodz. An active member of Dror and the JFO, he was responsible for organizing seminars and conferences for workers inside the Ghetto, and wrote many articles for the underground Jewish press in Warsaw. A self-taught man, he specialized in Yiddish literature. He escaped from the Ghetto via the sewers, along with the group guided by Zivia Lubetkin, and fought with the Jewish Brigade during the Warsaw Uprising. In 1949, he emigrated to Israel where he died, in 1959, leaving posterity a novel called: Between Tumbling Walls.
