Associate Justice, United States Supreme Court
Born on August 8, 1908, he served in the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) during World War II as an Army officer.
He was general counsel for the Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO) and was a moving force in combining that organization with the American Federationof Labor (AFL). He was then general counsel for the resulting AFL-CIO.
He served as Secretary of Labor in the Cabinet of President John F. Kennedy and was appointed to the Supreme Court by Kennedy in 1962.
