There were dozens, including Crystal Eastman and Albert DeSilver. The ACLU existed in other forms before its official formation in the 1920s, and was formed of the merger of other civil liberties organizations.

Most people name Roger Baldwin, who was the then-director of the National Civil Liberties Bureau. In addition to being involved with the formation of the ACLU, he also supported the ideals of peacful communism, decades before the formation of the Soviet Union. With the rise of the Nazis and Stalin, Baldwin left the communist movement, because he opposed the imposition of that economic model through violence.

{EDIT} Well, my answer comes from the ACLU website, you must be basing your information from some other source....

The ACLU was founded by Roger Baldwin, Crystal Eastman, Albert DeSilver and others in 1920. We are nonprofit and nonpartisan and have grown from a roomful of civil liberties activists to an organization of more than 500,000 members and supporters. We handle nearly 6,000 court cases annually from our offices in almost every state.

Who cares. The ACLU is a special interest group that thrives on litigation to achieve its goals. They offer nothing in support of average Americans and instead support left wing extremists.
