Wikipedia writes:

Mitchell Salem Fisher (1903/1904 – March 19, 1990) was an American rabbi who resigned from his active rabbinic position in 1930 because of what he described as "institutional restraint" and a separation between preachers and issues in the world. After his resignation, Fisher became a lawyer  with a specialization in marriage law. He worked for the Anti-Nazi League in opposition , served as counsel to the New York Board of Rabbis, and played a significant role in the development of family law in New York.
