Rabbi Meir Matsliaḥ Melamed (1920-1989), born in Izmir, Turkey, was a rabbi, author, and compiler of siddurim and maḥzorim in Spanish and Portuguese. We know little about his life and career save that he served the Congregation Bené Herzl and Temple Bet-El in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, before arriving in the United States where he began his tenure in the early 1970s with the Cuban Sephardic Hebrew Congregation in Miami, Florida.
