Jerome Davis


 

Jerome Davis (1891-?) was labor organizer and sociologist. Early in his life he campaigned to reduce the workweek and as an advocate of organized labor. He worked for the YMCA in Russia where he worked with a number of Bolshevik leaders. He received a PhD in sociology from Columbia University and was a professor at the Yale Divinity School. His failure to receive tenure caused controversy, as it was widely believed to be due to his activism and Socialist leanings.
