Lea Rabin (April 8, 1928 in Königsberg, East Prussia, — November 12, 2000 in Petach Tikvah , Israel) was the wife of Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin.
In 1933, she emigrated with her family to Palestine where she met her future husband Yitzhak Rabin at school. They married in 1948, the year of Israel's independence.
Lea Rabin supported the peace efforts of her husband in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and worked further for a solution after his assassination. However, a few years after her husband's death, she was diagnosed with cancer and died in 2000 at the age of 72.
