Tom C. Clark

September 23, 1899 – June 13, 1977

Tom C. Clark (1899–1977) was an American lawyer who served as the 59th U.S. Attorney General (1945–1949) under President Harry S. Truman and as an associate justice of the U.S. Supreme Court (1949–1967). He was the first, and as of 2026 the only, Supreme Court justice from the state of Texas. He retired from the Court in 1967 to avoid a conflict of interest when his son Ramsey Clark became Attorney General.
