Benjamin V. Cohen was born in Muncie, Indiana. He became a major legal architect of much of the New Deal legislation including the Securities Act of 1933 and the plan for Lend-Lease and economic stability during World War II. A shy man, Mr. Cohen worked behind the scenes where his brilliance as a legal draftsman was widely recognized. Following World War II, Mr. Cohen turned his talents to the problems of world peace and became one of the architects of the United Nations, serving on the U.S. delegation to the U.N. and on the United Nations Disarmament Commission. His abiding interest in world peace and his outstanding legal ability influenced American Presidents and world leaders until his death on August 15, 1983. The Ball State University Center for Peace and Conflict Studies manages the Benjamin V. Cohen Peace Fellowship and Travel Award Program.
