Louis Stulberg was born in Poland in 1901 and emigrated with his
parents to Canada in 1904. After graduating from the Harborn Collegiate
Institute in Toronto in 1918, he moved to Chicago, where he worked as a cutter
and joined ILGWU Local 81. Stulberg moved around the country, working as a
cutter and union organizer in Toledo, Ohio, Chicago, and New York City. It was
in New York that he finally settled, working as an official and organizer in
ILGWU Local 10. Later he held a number of executive positions in the ILGWU,
including the vice-presidency, a seat on the General Executive Board, the
executive vice-presidency, and the office of General Secretary-Treasurer. He
was elected president of the union in 1966, succeeding David Dubinsky, and
served until his retirement in 1975. He died in 1977.
Stulberg's term was an inward-looking time, after the long tenure of
David Dubinsky. A demographic shift in ILGWU membership, from largely Jewish
and Italian workers to more Hispanic and African-American workers, had begun
under Dubinsky, but accelerated rapidly during Stulberg's term. During this
period, the ILGWU focused more heavily on organizing, and membership reached an
all-time high in 1968. But by 1970, it had begun to fall dramatically, as more
clothing manufacturers moved their operations abroad. The union also shed many
of its political connections under Stulberg's leadership. In 1968 he led the
union out of the Liberal Party, which it had helped to found, and severed its
ties to the Americans for Democratic Action.
