RAPAPORT, NATHAN (1911–1987), Israel sculptor, born in Warsaw. Rapaport studied in Warsaw, Italy, and France, went to Russia, and settled in Israel in 1948. Among his best-known works are his majestic monument in Warsaw to the Heroes of the Warsaw Ghetto and his statue of their commander, mordecai aniliewicz , at Kibbutz Yad Mordekhai, Israel.
