The annual meeting of the American Society for Legal History brings with it an announcement of the Society's new leadership.
As outgoing president Sarah Barringer Gordon (University of Pennsylvania) prepared to pass the gavel to incoming president Lauren Benton (Vanderbilt University), she also announced a new president-elect: Michael Willrich (Brandeis University).
Joining the Nominating Committee are Elizabeth Papp Kamali (Harvard University) and David Lieberman (University of California, Berkeley).
Five new members will join the Board of Directors: Rabia Belt (Stanford University), Ariela Gross (University of Southern California), Richard Ross (University of Illinois, Urbana-Champagne), Katharina Schmidt (Princeton University) (graduate student representative), and Elizabeth Thornberry (Johns Hopkins University).
Thank you to the outgoing elected leaders and congratulations to the new!
