Isaac Rosenberg, painter and poet, was born in Bristol in 1890 but his family moved to the East End of London as a child. He was one of a group of young Jewish artists and writers, including David Bomberg, Mark Gertler, John Rodker, Stephen Winstein, Joseph Lefkowitz and Sonia Cohen, who met at the Whitechapel Library where this plaque located. He joined a bantam regiment (for men under 5 feet tall) in order to fight in WW1 and was killed on the Western Front in 1918.
