Life and career

John Leonard Rose was born on March 25, 1882[4] in Newark precinct[5] of Washington Township, Alameda County, California (present-day Newark, California[6]). His parents had immigrated to California from Portugal.[4][5]

Rose attended the University of California at Berkeley and graduated law school at Boalt Hall in 1907. He had been admitted to the California Bar in April 1906.[6][7]

During his early career, he had been a deputy district attorney for Alameda County and had been a law partner of Adolphus Frederic St. Sure. He served in the California State Assembly from 1917 to 1921. After returning from the state legislature, Rose was appointed attorney for the California State Board of Pharmacy. He returned to private law practice as an inheritance tax appraiser for Alameda County, from 1927 until his retirement in 1947.[6]
