I. M. (Isaac Meir) Weissenberg (1881, Żelechów - August 13, 1938, Warsaw) was a Yiddish-language writer in Warsaw, Poland.
 A disciple of I.L. Peretz, he began writing in 1904 and gained recognition for his 1906 masterpiece "A Shtetl" (A Town).
 This novella, still regarded as his major achievement, was a literary response to a story by Sholem Asch called "The Shtetl".
 Unlike Asch's sentimental view of Eastern European Jewish unity in the waning years of the Russian Empire, Weissenberg used a naturalistic form to explore the deep divides between Jews, usually along class lines.
 In the process, he "stressed the impact of the new revolutionary doctrines upon the townlets, rousing them from their lethargy and shattering their foundations" (Liptzin, p. 257).
 (See Shtetl for more on the history of these towns).
 "Almost alone among Yiddish writers, Weissenberg was a worker and the son of workers," critic Ruth Wisse notes (p. 27), a fact which shaped both his subject matter and his use of language.
 He wrote several novels and plays, but remained a consistently strong writer of novellas and short stories.
