History

Edward D. Ellison was born 1869 in Kansas City and graduated from Central High School. He later attended Princeton University and returned to Kansas City to study law at C.O. Tichenor’s office.

After passing the bar, he practiced law with J.C. Rieger and formed the partnership Ellison and Turpin. He was a founder of the Kansas City School of Law and served as treasurer. Throughout his career, he taught constitutional law, commercial paper, criminal law, common law pleading and statutory rights and remedies. In 1909, he succeeded Dean Borland as dean of the law school. He also served as president of the Kansas City Bar Association from 1911-12.
