Roman Stanley Gribbs (born December 29, 1925) is an American politician who was the Mayor of Detroit from 1970 to 1974. Later, Gribbs served as a judge on the Michigan Court of Appeals. ==Life and career== Gribbs was born in Detroit on December 29, 1925. He was raised on a farm near Capac, Michigan. His parents were Polish immigrants who were basically farmers, though his dad also worked on the Ford assembly line. After graduating from high school in 1944,〔 Gribbs served in the Army until 1948.〔 He graduated from the University of Detroit in 1952 with a degree in economics and accounting,〔 and received a law degree from the same institution in 1954.〔 He was an instructor at the university from 1955 through 1957,〔 and became an assistant prosecutor in 1957, a position he held until 1964.〔〔 He entered private practice in 1964,〔 and ran for a seat as a Recorder's Court judge in 1966, but lost.〔 In 1968, Gribbs was appointed sheriff of Wayne County, later winning a full four-year term.〔 However, in 1969 he was elected mayor of Detroit,〔 defeating opponent Richard H. Austin who later became Michigan Secretary of State. Rather than residing in the Manoogian Mansion, official residence of the mayor of Detroit, Gribbs maintained residence in Rosedale Park Historic District (Detroit, Michigan), a neighborhood in northwest Detroit. In 1973, Gribbs declined to seek re-election〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Piast Institute )〕 and was replaced by Coleman Young who was elected Detroit's first African-American mayor in November of that year. After leaving the mayor's office, Gribbs returned to private practice.〔 Gribbs became a circuit court judge in 1975.〔 He was elected to the Michigan Court of Appeals in 1982,〔 upon which he served until his retirement in 2001.〔 Gribbs currently resides in Northville in suburban Detroit, and conducts private practice in mediation and arbitration. He is the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Piast Institute, a research center devoted to Polish and Polish American affairs.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Piast Institute )〕
