Fredrik Herman Gade

Fredrik Herman Gade (12 August 1871 – 20 February 1943) was a Norwegian-American attorney, elected official, diplomat and ambassador.

[1][2] Fredrik Herman Gade was born at Frogner Manor near Christiania (now Oslo), Norway.

He was a son of United States consul Gerhard Gade (1834–1909) and his American-born wife Helen Allyne.

He returned to Norway in 1910 to work for Ministry of Foreign Affairs, but did not get his citizenship back until after a two-year stay.

From 1918 he was stationed in Brazil, the first year as acting chargé d'affaires, then as minister (ambassador) and consul-general.
