Biography:
J. Lee Rankin was born in Hartington, Nebraska, on July 7, 1907. He graduated from
Lincoln High School in 1924 and received both his undergraduate (1928) and law
(1930) degrees from the University of Nebraska. Rankin began his 20 year law career
with a firm in Lincoln, Nebraska, after being admitted to the Nebraska Bar
Association in 1930, when he graduated from law schoo. In 1952, he managed Nebraska
Dwight Eisenhower presidential campaign in Nebraska. In 1953, he began his service
as Assistant Attorney General.
Rankin served as the first Assistant Attorney General in charge of the Office of
Legal Counsel of the United States from 1953-1956. During this time he argued in
favor of the African-American plaintiffs in Brown v. Board of Education (1954),
advocating that the doctrine of "separate-but-equal" facilities for blacks and
whites was unconstitutional. After the United States Supreme Court's ruling in
Brown, Rankin argued for a gradual desegregation of schools in order to avoid
violence that might arise from the decision. Also during this time, Rankin assisted
with claims among Western states to the Colorado River and balancing federal and
state jurisdictions in offshore oil drilling.
On August 14, 1956, Rankin became Solicitor General of the United States, a position
he held until 1961. In response to lawsuits in many states arising out of
legislative reapportionment fights, he developed the Justice Department's position
that led to the principle of one person, one vote. After this appointment, in 1961,
Rankin represented the American Civil Liberties Union in advancing the landmark
case, Gideon v. Wainwright, solidifying the right of an indigent person accused of a
crime to have legal counsel at public expense. From 1961 to 1963 Rankin worked in
private practice.
Following President John F. Kennedy's 1963 assassination, Rankin served as General
Counsel for the Warren Commission that concluded that Lee Harvey Oswald had acted
alone in killing President Kennedy. He served as general council from 1953-1964. He
assisted in redrafting and editing the Commission's voluminous report. After his
work with the Warren Commission, Rankin worked seven years as the New York City
Corporation Counsel (1966-1972).
Rankin returned to private practice, working in New York and California, from
1972-1978. After retirement, Rankin and his wife, Gertrude, lived in Weston,
Connecticut, and Los Gatos, California. J. Lee Rankin died on June 28, 1996.

provision that taxes will be paid by grantee, 1947, Apr. 28
Item Letter, from Herman Rankin to M.Q. Sharpe, the Wagner Bank
land is not Rankin land, might be good to get quit claim deed from
him, willing to accept proposition offered by Wood and pay $15, but
not $50, Rankin has not shared oil rights before, and believes that

satisfied, 1947, May 6

renter or buyer for land offered to exchange with Williams, wants
Williams to know and hopes to hear from Sharpe soon, 1947, May 15
Item Letter, from M.Q. Sharpe to Herman Rankin, Williams has not
responded to trade proposition yet, would be worth at least $25 to
$50 per quarter to get quit claim deeds from record owners of Wagner
Bank land, obstacle in finding out whether the person does actually
have a title free from encumbrances, recommends buying an abstract
of title, abstract expensive but possibly worth the cost as it
prevents paying someone who does not have legitimate title,

deal can be worked out with Williams, but need response from
Williams soon or will take to court, 1947, May 17

unless Williams acts promptly, 1947, May 24
Item Letter, from M.Q. Sharpe to Herman Rankin, land title cases
Sharpe is working on for Rankin cannot be hurried with any hope of

Sharpe still of the opinion that quickest and surest way to get
titles confirmed is to buy quit claim deeds from outstanding record
owners, abstracts will be expensive but buying them is the only safe
thing to do, can only safely sell or exchange land if notifying
purchaser that they will need to obtain title or convey that Rankin
needs to get title first, Sharpe will keep working on title
acquirement as quickly and cheaply as possible unless Rankin
authorizes complete set of abstracts and general over all quiet
title action, 1947, May 27
Item Letter, from Herman Rankin to M.Q. Sharpe, believes they will
