About R' Avigdor Karo, A.B.D. Leslau and Pinsk
Famous controversial opponent of Chasidism and their leaders, in particular Admor Shneur Zalman of Liadi Boruchovitch. This led to the latter's imprisonment. A strong proponent of the ban against Chassidim. He eventually lost his position as Rabbi of Pinsk due to pressures from the Hasidic community there.
More commonly recorded as Rabbi Avigdor ben Chaim or Rabbi Avigdor of Pinsk or Rabbi Avigdor Haimowitz. However his family name was Karo.
