Susman Family

Susman was born into the Susman family of St. Louis, Missouri, the son of Frank Susman (Susman, Schermer, Rimmel & Shifrin).[8] Mr. Susman argued nine cases before the U.S. Supreme Court, and is the only attorney in history to have been invited or permitted to argue two separate cases before the Supreme Court on the same day.[9][10] Susman was known for supporting country over party. In one example, in March 1976, Susman argued against John Danforth, the Republican Attorney General of Missouri, in the U.S. Supreme Court. Then, six months later, in October 1976, back in Missouri, Susman joined with August Busch III to form "Democrats for Danforth." On November 2, 1976, Mr. Danforth was elected and served for three terms as Republican Senator for Missouri, prior to his service as Ambassador to the United Nations.[11]

Mr. Susman's mother, Marilyn Susman is a Professor Emerita of Psychology at Loyola University,[12] and Fulbright Scholar of the United States Department of State. Ms. Susman studied under Abraham Maslow.

Mr. Susman's grandfather, Earl Susman (Susman, Willer, Rimmel & Parker), served and was of counsel on Shelley vs. Kraemer,[13] a landmark U.S. Supreme Court ruling, and argued by Thurgood Marshall, which made housing discrimination illegal. Susman served as President of the Jewish Federation of St. Louis.[14]

In addition to the United States Supreme Court, the family has also served in two Anglo-American courts. Notable family members include Louis Susman, the former Ambassador to the Court of St. James (United Kingdom), nominated by Barack Obama, and Karen Hantze Susman, winner of the 1962 women's singles title on Centre Court at the Wimbledon Championship.

In Africa, Susman Brothers founded, owned, and operated several large businesses including mining interests, ranches, and agribusinesses. The Susman business empire lasted over a century by overcoming logistical difficulties, physically challenging obstacles, and political changes. Susman Brothers developed an extensive trading and transport network, which stretched from Botswana to the Democratic Republic of the Congo. In 1925, Harry Susman and King Litunga Yeta III received the Prince of Wales on the occasion of his visit.

Personal life

Susman was put forward by Martha Nussbaum as a visiting student of ancient philosophy and rhetoric at Oxford University, studying under J.L. Ackrill, an English philosopher and classicist, and Fellow of the British Academy, Margaret Hubbard, who has been described as "one of the most distinguished classical scholars of the modern age," and Peter Birks, Queen's Counsel, who advanced the English law of Restitution, and is often considered to have been one of the greatest English legal scholars of the 20th century.

Susman earned a Bachelor of Arts in Ethics and Political Philosophy at Brown University. Susman earned a Diploma of Business Studies at the London School of Economics.
