Rufus Isaacs, 1st Marquess of Reading

A British Liberal politician and judge who became the first Jewish Lord Chief Justice of England and the first British Jew elevated to a marquessate. He went on to serve as Viceroy of India and, briefly, as Foreign Secretary — the last Liberal ever to hold that office. He was only the second practising Jew to sit in a British cabinet, following Herbert Samuel, marking a significant milestone in Jewish participation in British public life.
