    Translated to English, his name means “artist.” The “art” he plied in the 20th century could conceivably be that of defense and persuasion, usually famously, once for seven. Who was he?

    Very good, purrrr!

    This trial took place in my impressionable years, and the adults in my family making all the requisite rants, I turned to a book he had written, "The Case For Courage: The Stories of Ten Famous American Attorneys Who Risked Their Careers in the Cause of Justice."

    Just recently while looking at some Kunsthistorisches Museum sites I realized the German meaning of his name. The "u" would properly take an umlaut.
