Leiserson, William Morris, 1883-1957

William Morris Leiserson was a notable labor relations scholar and mediator. Leiserson, perhaps the twentieth century's most influential labor mediator during the rise of labor unions and collective bargaining in the United States, was a professor, state and federal government administrator, mediator, arbitrator, and a member of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's "brain trust" which developed and wrote legislation such as the Railway Labor Act of 1934. (Source: Wikipedia)
