Biography or History
Thurman Wesley Arnold, the son of lawyer C.P. Arnold, was born in Laramie, Wyoming,
and educated at the University of Wyoming, Princeton, and Harvard, where he earned a
law degree in 1914. He practised law briefly in Chicago before serving with the U.S.
Army in France during World War I. Arnold returned to Laramie, where he practised
law from 1919 to 1927, served as mayor from 1923 to 1924, served one term in the

law school. He was dean of the University of West Virginia College of Law from 1927
to 1930 and taught at Yale from 1930 to 1938.
Arnold was named assistant attorney general of the U.S. in charge of the antitrust

National Economic Committee from 1938 to 1941. He was appointed to the U.S. Court of
Appeals for the District of Columbia in 1943 and left the bench in 1945 to resume
