Frick, Wilhelm (1877–1946),German lawyer who as an early supporter of Hitler and a dedicated Nazi bureaucrat drew up the Nuremberg Laws in 1935 (see
anti-Semitism). As Reich minister of the interior between 1933 and 1943 he implemented social measures against German Jews (see
Final Solution) and against opponents of Hitler's regime. In August 1943 he was appointed Reichsprotector of Bohemia and Moravia, though Karl Frank, promoted from state secretary to minister of state, wielded the real power. He refused to testify at the
Nuremberg trials, but was sentenced to death and hanged.
