His father was very busy with his cap business, and so he entrusted Rabbi Yaakov Yosef Herman with the religious upbringing of young Shachna. Rabbi Herman eventually convinced the lad to study at the Yeshiva in New Haven, Connecticut where a young Chaim Pinchas Scheinberg also studied at Rabbi Herman's behest.〔("All for the Boss" )〕 In his youth, he briefly studied Talmud in Yeshiva University and before traveling to Europe to study under Rabbi Boruch Ber Leibowitz in the Yeshiva in Kaminetz and then in Mir Yeshiva. While in Europe, he married Liba Gulevsky. Before returning to America, Rabbi Zohn developed a close student relationship with the Jewish rabbinical leader of the time, RabbiIsrael Meir Kagan. Upon returning to America in anticipation of the Holocaust, he assumed a position in Torah Vodaas (in Brooklyn as a professor of Talmud, eventually becoming one of the school's deans. Eventually, Rabbi Zohn retired from his position in Torah Vodaas to immigrate to Israel. There, Rabbi Schachne Zohn headed for forty years a study group for adult men in Jerusalem which analyzed sacrificial laws in a Talmudic contxt. He lived in the Ezrat Torah neighborhood of Jerusalem. In the summer of 2008, Rabbi Shachna Zohn reported that he saw his former teacher Rabbi Israel Meir Kagan (with whom he studied Torah in pre-Holocaust Europe) in a dream and was told that the ''Geulah'' (Hebrew for Redemption) is imminent. This fact was publicized by Rabbi Tzvi Mayer Zilberberg and was later confirmed by Mishpacha Magazine.〔http://www.mishpacha.com/indexes/1/221/〕 Rabbi Zohn died on December 20, 2012.
