Philip Murray (1886–1952) was one of the most influential labor leaders in American history. As the president of the CIO from 1940 until his death, he played a central role in expanding industrial unionism across the United States. At the time of this issue’s publication, Murray was navigating the complex postwar labor landscape, advocating for workers’ rights amid widespread strikes and efforts to secure better wages and conditions following World War II. A staunch supporter of collective bargaining and civil rights, Murray also served as the longtime head of the United Steelworkers of America and was instrumental in shaping the modern labor movement.
