Alberto R. Gonzales began working for George W. Bush shortly after Mr. Bush won his first election, for governor of Texas in 1994. For most of the next decade, Mr. Gonzales worked at Mr. Bush's side, as general counsel in Texas and as chief White House counsel in Washington, acting as a quiet, dogged defender of Mr. Bush's interests who attracted little notice in either position other than as the first Hispanic to hold either job. Mr. Gonzales then became Attorney General, beginning a tenure that by its end was anything but quiet, as scandals over the improper involvement of partisan motives in the Justice Department's workings multiplied over the course of 2007.
He resigned as attorney general after two and a half years in the job, in the face of growing criticism from lawmakers over his role in the N.S.A. wiretapping program and in the dismissals of nine United States attorneys.
The common thread in the investigations that dogged Mr. Gonzales before he announced his resignation deep in the 2007 August Congressional recess was the question of whether he had continued to act as the White House's agent in a job that, unlike his previous ones, called for a measure of independence. By the time he resigned, prominent Senate Democrats had begun to raise the question of whether he should be prosecuted for perjury for testimony before Congress that they called deliberately misleading.
Before Mr. Gonzales became Attorney General, he was known mostly for his life story, which Mr. Bush compared to the American dream -- one of seven siblings in a poor family in south Texas, he attended Harvard and Rice University, eventually rising to become a member of the Texas Supreme Court.
