He was born into wealth and was educated at the University of Chicago and at Harvard Law School. He was a co founder of the NAACP, and founded the National Women's Trade Union League in 1903. He was a member of the Socialist Party of America, but quit in 1917 due to the party's stance against U. S. involvement in World War I. He later worked full-time for the American Federation of Labor. He was married to Anna Strunsky, a Jewish immigrant and an aspiring novelist from San Francisco; their marriage ended during World War I, in part due to their disagreement over the United States' role in the conflict.
