E. Joshua Rosenkranz was born on December 3, 1961, in New York City, into the family of Herbert S. and Deanna (Green) Rosenkranz.
In 1979 - 1981 E. Rosenkranz attended Columbia University. Then he received Bachelor of Arts (summa cum Iaude) at Case Western Reserve University in 1983, and also earned Juris Doctor (magna cum laude) at Georgetown University in 1986.
A former law clerk to U.S. Supreme Court Justice William J. Brennan Jr. and then - Judge Antonin Scalia on the D.C. Circuit, Josh has personally argued more than 190 appeals in state and federal appellate courts across the nation, including 17 before the U.S. Supreme Court.
Josh's practice covers a wide range of subjects, including securities, intellectual property, antitrust, federal preemption, insurance law, corporate governance, criminal law and constitutional litigation. Among his recent clients are Apple, Credit Suisse, DIRECTV, DISH Network, Facebook, JPMorgan Chase, Kleiner Perkins, LinkedIn, Microsoft, Morgan Stanley, Oracle, Royal Bank of Scotland, and UBS.
E. Rosenkranz is currently representing Microsoft in an international cause célèbre in the U.S. Supreme Court challenging the U.S. Government’s claim that it can serve warrants for emails stored overseas. He represented DISH Network in one of the most high-profile patent appeals in the country, successfully overturning an infringement finding that yielded $400 million in damages and an injunction that ordered the satellite TV company to turn off the recording capabilities of millions of customers. He represented Facebook in the high-profile battle waged by the founder's Harvard classmates who laid claim to the idea for Facebook, winning a ruling from the Ninth Circuit to end the lawsuit. He represented Apple in the "smartphone wars" in an appeal about the validity of the patent on Apple's revolutionary touchscreen.
In 2005, E. Rosenkranz successfully represented Merck KGaA in a Supreme Court case that the National Law Journal described as “the most significant patent infringement case to confront the biotech and pharmaceutical industries in a generation.” He represented 36 law schools in a high-profile Supreme Court case against the Department of Defense. He also argued and won a case that many consider to be the most important employee benefits case of the decade. And in March 2013, he won a landmark victory in a Supreme Court case that rescued the estimated $60 billion U.S. market of copyrighted goods manufactured abroad.
Josh was the founding president and CEO of the Brennan Center for Justice at New York University School of Law, one of the country’s foremost public interest firms. Over the course of eight years, he was the Brennan Center’s chief strategist on litigation and public policy advocacy. Under his direction, the center represented parties in connection with more than 50 cases (including three at the U.S. Supreme Court) and filed almost 40 amicus briefs (including 20 at the U.S. Supreme Court). Before creating the Brennan Center, Josh founded the Office of the Appellate Defender, a public defender office specializing in criminal appeals in New York state courts.
Moreover, Josh has published numerous books, monographs, chapters and scholarly articles. He has also authored 18 op-eds or articles in major newspapers and magazines, including The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Time, The Chicago Tribune, The Washington Monthly, The Boston Review, The National Law Journal, and The American Prospect.
