Background
He was born in San Francisco, California on January 14, 1874. He attended the public schools and worked as an iron molder. An active member of the Union Labor Party,[1] he was appointed to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors by Mayor P. H. McCarthy in 1911.[2] He ran for re-election that year, but was narrowly defeated.[3] In 1912, he was the secretary of the San Francisco Labor Council (he was a member of the Iron Molder's Union).
Congress
In 1912, Nolan was elected as a Bull Moose Republican[4][5] to the 63rd United States Congress.[6] San Francisco's first labor congressman in eight years, he was a staunch progressive reelected to the four succeeding Congresses. He served from March 4, 1913, until his death. During the 66th United States Congress, he was the chairman of the United States House Committee on Patents, and during the 67th United States Congress, he was the chairman of the United States House Committee on Labor.
Death and burial
He had been re-elected in 1922 to the 68th United States Congress before he died in San Francisco, California on November 18, 1922. He was interred at Holy Cross Cemetery in Colma, California.
After he died, his vacant position in Congress was taken by his wife, Mae Nolan.
