== Biography ==
Born in Lithuania, Rifkind emigrated to the United States in 1910. He attended DeWitt Clinton High School, and received a B.S. from City College of New York in 1922 and an LL.B. from Columbia Law School in 1925.
From 1927 to 1933, he was legislative secretary to Senator Robert F. Wagner, in which capacity he helped create important aspects of New Deal legislation including Section 7(a) of the National Industrial Recovery Act. He was partner at Wagner, Quillinan & Rifkind from 1930 to 1941. Rifkind was nominated by President Franklin D. Roosevelt on April 25, 1941, to become a Federal District Court judge for the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, filling the seat vacated by Robert P. Patterson, Sr.. He was confirmed by the United States Senate on June 3, 1941, and received his commission on June 6, 1941.
In 1945, Rifkind took a leave of absence from the bench to serve as adviser on Jewish affairs to the Theatre Commander of United States forces in Europe, helping the U.S. Army aid Holocaust survivors in the wake of World War II. Rifkind resigned from the bench in 1950, and until his death in 1995 served as a litigation partner at Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP. Over the course of his tenure he came to be seen as the guiding spirit of the firm.
