Biography

[edit]

Born in Be'erot Yitzhak during the Mandate era, Gutman grew up in Rehovot and studied at the Technion and Berkeley, before returning to the Technion as a professor.

In 1992 he was elected to the Knesset on the Moledet list. However, he left the party on 24 July 1995 to establish Yamin Yisrael.[1] He lost his seat when the party failed to cross the electoral threshold in the 1996 elections.
