Yom-Tov Lipmann Heller was a Bohemian rabbi and talmudist. His best-known work, Tosefot Yom Tov, is one of the basic commentaries on the Mishnah. He also wrote Ma'adanei Yom Tov, an important commentary on Piskei HaRosh of Rabbeinu Asher ben Yechiel. He studied under Maharal of Prague, and served as chief rabbi of Vienna and Prague. Many prominent rabbis of subsequent generations are his descendants.
