Hanani (Chojnacki) was born in Poland, studied in Vienna and Warsaw, and graduated with an Master of Arts
He emigrated to the British Mandate of Palestine, later to become Israel, in 1935 and in 1938 received the first Doctor of Philosophy in Mathematics from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
He is also known for the Hanani–Tutte theorem on odd crossings in non-planar graphs. From the University of Warsaw in 1934. In 1955 he was appointed to the faculty at Technion Institute of Technology and from 1969 to 1973 he served as the rector of Ben-Gurion University in Beersheba.
In 1980 he was awarded the title of Professor Emeritus at that institution.
His early research led to the proof of the theorem devised by Richard M. Wilson on pairwise balance designs. He wrote scholarly papers with Andries Brouwer, Paul Erdős, Alexander Schrijver, and Richard M. Wilson, among others
His papers were published in journals such as Discrete Mathematics, the Journal of Combinatorial Theory, the European Journal of Combinatorics, and the American Mathematical Monthly. Haim Hanani; Alan Hartman.
