Samuel "Sam" Liskov (Liskovsky; March 18, 1908 – August 18, 2001)[1] was an American politician who served as member of the Connecticut House of Representatives from the 135th, respectively 131th District, for the Democratic Party.
Liskov was born Samuel Liskovsky on March 18, 1908, in Bridgeport, Connecticut, to Russian immigrant parents Nathan, a peddler, and Esther Liskovsky, a homemaker. His native tongue at home was Yiddish. His father deserted during the Russo-Japanese War from the Imperial Russian Army and fled to London with his wife and two sons. They arrived on Ellis Island in 1907 and Samuel was born nine months after.[2]
He attended Shelton School on Wheeler Avenue where he graduated high school in 1922.[2] In 1930, he graduated from a two-year course from Junior College (presently University of Bridgeport).[2] He later completed additional studies at the New York University School of Law.[2]
In 1932, Liskov and his brothers founded Bridgeport Electric and Radio Company, a radio shop located at 746 Madison Avenue in Bridgeport, Connecticut.[3] He was later admitted to the bar and became an attorney.
