Edward J. Flynn

He graduated from Fordham Law School in 1912, was admitted to the bar in June 1913, and practiced in the Bronx.

He did accompany Roosevelt to the Yalta Conference remaining in Europe afterwards to carry out various missions for the president.

After his mission, Flynn traveled to England to meet with Prime Minister Winston Churchill.

Flynn warned that placing Byrnes on the ticket would cost Roosevelt two hundred thousand black votes in New York State alone.

His papers were given by his family to the Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library and Museum, to be made available for the general public.
