EDWARD M. NASH
Edward M. Nash, a native son of Minneapolis and a member of one of its honored
pioneer families, which for nearly seven decades has been closely identified
with the development and upbuilding of the city, is engaged in the general
practice of law and his professional colleagues and the public accord him a
position of prominence in his chosen calling. He was born February 13, 1881, and
his parents were Michael W. and Mary A. (Brennan) Nash. More extended mention of
the father, who was long a success­ful real estate operator and one of the
leading business men of Minneapolis, is made on another page of this work.
After completing his public school course Edward M. Nash became a student at the
University of Minnesota, devoting two and a half years to academic work in that
institu­tion, and he then entered the St. Paul Law School, from which he was
graduated with the class of 1907. In the same year he was admitted to the bar
and at once took up the practice of his profession, which he has since followed
successfully in this city. He has always practiced alone and has been retained
as counsel by many of the well known business firms of Minneapolis, his
clientele being a large and representative one. He is well versed in the law,
readily quotes precedents, and his standing before the courts is an enviable
one.
Mr. Nash is a Roman Catholic in religious faith, being a member of the
Pro-Cathedral, and, like his father, he is a stanch republican in his political
views and an -active worker in the ranks of the party. He is identified with the
Knights of Columbus, in which he has taken the third degree, the Royal Arcanum
and the Lincoln Club. Nature endowed him with a keen intellect and his
analytical powers and careful preparation of his cases have placed him among the
strong and able lawyers at the bar of Minneapolis. Mr. Nash makes his home with
his three sisters: Anna M., Julia A. and Margaret A. The two first named have
been teachers in the public schools of Minneapolis for over twenty years.
