Viewing Irving O. Fosseen (1882-1943).


Irving O. Fosseen (1882-1943).

Irving Otis Fosseen came late to the law. A stalwart of the Republican Party in Minneapolis --and a champion of President Theodore Roosevelt--he was a long-time employee of Hennepin County. He attended and graduated the Minnesota College of Law and was admitted of the bar in 1927, at age forty-five. He died on June 5, 1943, after a long illness. At the annual memorial proceedings of the Hennepin County Bar Association on March 21, 1944, he was recalled: "Although handicapped by ill health for so many years, he nevertheless made a significant contribution to his community as his host of friends attest."
