The biographies of Ohio's Supreme Court justices were completed as a joint research project by the Supreme Court of Ohio and the Ohio Historical Society. The entries offer brief biographical sketches that focus mainly on their judicial, legal, and public service careers. They are not intended to be comprehensive histories of a justice's life or times. Readers who find errors or omissions are encouraged to contact the Office of Public Information at PublicInformation@sc.ohio.gov.
