Schlesinger was born in Vienna in September 1921 and emigrated to Israel with his family in the late 1930s. He is a son-in-law of Rabbi Moshe Blau. He was very close to Rabbi Yosef Tzvi Dushinsky, Rabbi Avraham Yeshaya Karelitz (the Chazon Ish), and the Brisker Rav. In around 1947, shortly after his marriage, he moved to London, England. He then opened a yeshiva named Yeshivas Rama and he still delivers lectures to its students. His wife died in 2019 after 74 years of marriage.{{cn|date=April 2025}}
