As a Justice Department trial lawyer, he pursued Nazi war criminals who had immigrated to the United States, later rising to become senior counsel to two U.S. ambassadors to the United Nations, Jeane J. Kirkpatrick and Gen. Vernon A. Walters. Mr. Gerson was named Kirkpatrick’s senior counsel in 1981 and chronicled those years in a book, “The Kirkpatrick Mission: Diplomacy Without Apology” (1991).
