Wikipedia description:
Harry Keyishian (April 9, 1932 – April 4, 2026) was an American editor and academic. He was a professor of English at Fairleigh Dickinson University and served on the editorial board of Fairleigh Dickinson University Press. He directed Fairleigh Dickinson University Press from 1977 to 2017 and worked extensively on William Shakespeare and Armenian literature. As a teacher at the State University of New York (University at Buffalo), his refusal to sign an oath that he was not a member of the Communist Party led him to be the lead plaintiff in the Supreme Court case Keyishian v. Board of Regents (385 U.S. 589 (1967)) that ruled states cannot prohibit employees from being members of the Communist Party.
