Loeser, Hans F.
Variant namesBiographical notes:
Hans Loeser was born in Kassel, Germany in 1920. In response to the growing threat posed by the Nazis, Loeser's parents sent him away to England to be educated. He was eventually reunited with his family in New York in 1939. When the United States entered WWII, Loeser joined the army and was in one of the first American divisions to reach Berlin. After the Germans surrendered, Loeser remained in Germany for two years as part of the de-Nazification efforts in the Munich Office of Military Government. Upon returning to the United States, he entered Harvard Law School and began working at Foley, Hoag, and Elliot, where he established one of the first law firm pro bono departments in the country.
