Born in Vienna in 1920, Preminger made aliyah to Mandatory Palestine in 1939. He joined the Palestine Communist Party, but in 1945 was one of the leaders of a group that left in order to form the Hebrew Communists party.

Following a purge of Maki's leadership, Preminger left the party and resurrected the Hebrew Communists party on 8 June 1949. On 15 August 1949, he joined Mapam. He lost his seat in the 1951 elections, and later worked as Deputy Director General of the Ministry of Development, as well as serving on the board of directors of Israel Quarries and the Phosphates Company.
