- Relli Robinson, née Głowinski, was born to a Jewish family in Warsaw, Poland. Her parents were Michał and Franka (Fersztendik) Głowinski. They smuggled her out of the Warsaw Ghetto as a baby to live under an assumed identity with courageous non-Jewish Polish rescuers Janina and Jȯzef Abramowicz. She was the only member of her family in Europe to survive World War II. In 1950, she immigrated to Israel, settling with relatives in Haifa. She graduated from Kfar Hayarok Agricultural High School before doing her national service in the Israeli Defense Forces engineering corps and in the navy. She then studied at Hebrew University in Jerusalem and at the University of California at Los Angeles. She became the mother of two daughters and a grandmother of six. For more than 30 years, she held senior academic administration positions at the University of Haifa, the last of which was head of the Welfare and Health Sciences Faculty. Her autobiography, Raking Light from Ashes, was first published in 2011 and printed in three editions. It was awarded a translation into English grant by the Ministry of Culture and Sports.
