[1] During World War II, he worked for the Armed Forces Motion Picture Unit with Frank Capra and Ted Geisel (pen name Dr. Seuss).

He filmed sites important in the Spanish Inquisition, and kibbutzim workers in the British Mandate and later Israel.

[citation needed] He was the only artist-journalist who covered that story, particularly Daniel Ellsberg's prosecution, which was his first courtroom work.

[2] Trials he covered included Patty Hearst, Rodney King, John DeLorean, 1980 Bob's Big Boy murder accomplice Ricky Sanders, Angelo Buono Jr., Richard Ramirez, Timothy McVeigh, Huey P. Newton, Roman Polanski, Lynette Fromme, and Yigal Amir (Rose's last courtroom work), for networks including CNN and its affiliates.

Rose married art teacher Ida Shapiro in 1945, and fathered two children with her, Marsha and Lisa.
