Pinchas Tzvi Grayevsky [1873-1941] was an author, historian and documenter of Jewish life in Jerusalem. He was educated in the Etz Chaim yeshivah. His father, Rabbi Tzvi, was from an early rabbinic family that ascended to the Land of Israel. He served as a dayan and rabbinic instructor in Slonim. He was a close associate of Rabbi Shmuel Salant, rabbi of Jerusalem. In 1893, he acceded to the request of Rabbi Shmuel of Salant, becoming assistant to Rabbi Yechiel Michel Pines in the administration of the Bikkur Cholim hospital.
