Wikipedia description:

Sabetay Josef Djaen (Serbian: Šabetaj Josef Đaen; 1883 – November 10, 1947) was a Bulgarian-born Sephardic rabbi active in Macedonia, Romania, Argentina, Uruguay, and Chile. He was an author, playwright, educator, and columnist in both Ladino and Serbian. He was one of the central figures of the Sephardic Jewish diaspora between the two world wars. His family originally came from the Andalusian city of Jaén, where his family originated before their expulsion. He served as Chief Rabbi of Sephardic Jews in Argentina and Uruguay from 1929 to 1931 and Chief Rabbi of the Sephardic community of Bucharest from 1931 to 1944.
