Surely the best known Supreme Court in history and most controversial.  

Grand themes—racial equality, reapportionment, the separation of religion and education process—became matters of public consciousness.  

Its leading judges—Hugo l. black, William o. Douglas, Felix Frankfurter, John Marshall Harlan and earl warren—became personages with whom general public take an interest.

The Warren Court was the period (from 1953 to 1969) when Chief Justice Earl Warren (1891 – 1974) presided over the United States Supreme Court and brought in several laws to end racial segregation, incorporating the Bill of Rights etc., in dramatic ways.

Earl Warren had earlier served as the 30th Governor of California, till he was appointed the 14th Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court. He has the reputation of having ruled various landmark cases such as the presidential commission which investigated assassination of President John F. Kennedy, Brown v. Board of Education, Miranda v. State of Arizona etc.
