From Wikipedia
Nathan Cassuto (11 October 1909 – February 1945) was an Italian Jewish ophthalmologist who served in the rabbinate of Milan and was appointed Chief Rabbi of the Jewish community of Florence at the end of 1942. He was active in the underground resistance and in rescuing members of his community. He was arrested by the Germans, and from January 1945, there are no further records of him. It is believed that he perished during the Death March from the camps to Germany as the Red Army approached. When the Germans invaded northern Italy, Cassuto went from house to house to persuade the Jews to move to hiding places. Afterwards, he, together with others, established a Jewish-Christian underground with the aim of finding shelter for Jewish refugees in church institutions. His efforts saved hundreds of lives before the Nazis began their operations against the Jews of Florence.
