By EMMA BROWN | The Washington Post | Published: April 10, 2021 Ramsey Clark, who was U.S. attorney general under President Lyndon B. Johnson and then, after leaving government service, redefined himself as a relentless critic of American foreign policy and as a courtroom defender of widely reviled figures such as former Iraqi president Saddam Hussein, died April 9 at his home in New York City. He was 93. The death was confirmed by a great-niece, Sharon Welch. The precise cause was not immediately known. The son of conservative Supreme Court Justice Tom C. Clark, Clark grew up in the lap of the political establishment and was the last surviving member of Johnson s Cabinet. As a young man, he showed few signs of his firebrand future, but in the half-century that followed his 22-month term as the nation s top prosecutor, he underwent a remarkable political transformation and became a persistent voice of dissent against the government.
