Graduated from Washington University in St. Louis with an AB in 1970 and a JD in 1974.
Was profiled in the St. Louis Business Journal.
In addition to working out and biking (and previously being a back-of-the-pack triathlete), I enjoy writing, politics and being a polite pain in the ass to hypocritical public figures. My future blog items will include tales from my legal career and the people I have run across, plus comments on current happenings and religion.
