Jonathan Lubell, a libel attorney whose path to a career in law was temporarily blocked during the Red Scare of the early 1950s amid unproven accusations that he belonged to a communist cell, died on Nov. 13 from complications of Parkinson’s disease. He was 87.

Lubell was born in the Bronx in 1929 just 10 minutes after his identical twin, David Lubell, who also was an attorney and died in 2012.
