Chaim David Lippe was born in 1823 in Stanisławów, Galicia (today Ivano-Frankivsk, Ukraine). He later relocated to Tschernowitz (today Czernowitz, Ukraine) and Eperies (today Prešov, Slovakia), where he took on the roles of teacher and cantor.[1]
In 1873, Lippe settled in Vienna, where he ran a Jewish publishing-house, which issued several popular works. He himself edited a bibliographical lexicon of modern Jewish literature, Ch. D.
