Earl Warren was Chief Justice of the United States from 1953 to 1969. He had been nominated by President Dwight Eisenhower to the office of Chief Justice in 1953, to replace Chief Justice Fred Vinson, who had died in office. Warren served on the Court until his retirement in June 1969. President Nixon nominated Chief Justice Warren Burger as Earl Warren's successor.

Earl Warren presided over a long string of landmark cases that advanced civil rights and ensured fair judicial process for criminal defendants.
