| Faculty |

| Contracts, Advanced Legal Research, Chinese Law, Jurisprudence |
| WHAT IS YOUR AREA OF RESEARCH OR WRITING? |
| Mostly issues of digitizing legal information (I started writing about it in the 11980’s). Still work in Chinese Law and a smidge in Contracts. |
| WHEN I STARTED WORKING HERE: |
| 1982 |
| WHAT I DO IN FIVE WORDS OR LESS: |
| Teach, write, what needs done. |
| THE BEST PART ABOUT WORKING HERE: |
| So many bright, passionate people all working to bring a little rationality and justice into the world, where better to work? The students kept me young, the staff kept me inspired. |
| SOMETHING YOU DON’T KNOW ABOUT ME: |
| I am a very close friend of Uncle Zeb. |
| ONE OR TWO TIPS ABOUT THINGS YOU LIKE TO DO AROUND THE BAY AREA: |
| Tilden Park is a tremendous resource and it is so close to campus! Also, head north, the coast is beautiful and almost no one is there. The Bay Area is not northern California, there is lots of beauty and it goes on for hours. Get into the middle of the forest and forget the daily assault of information! |
