Samuel Green
Dr. Samuel Green was born November 18th 1899 in Atlanta Georgia. He worked as an obstetrician and joined the Ku Klux Klan in 1922. Green announced his return to public cross burning in 1945 and would soon be elected as the Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan on August 4th 1949. The Klan would feud with the newly formed Columbians Inc. between 1946 and 1947 as both groups battled for power to become Atlanta's eminent white supremacist organization. However, his tenure as leader of the Klan would be short as he died on August 18th, 1949 at the age of 59. Green's draft cards from 1917-1918 display his residence at the Kimball House in downtown Atlanta.
