Imperial (Roman) Grandeur -- in Junior High School

A long gap ... college, law school, law practice in California, law teaching in Wisconsin, advanced law degree, and then:

University of Puget Sound 1974 or 1975
Another long gap ... fellowships, law teaching in Northeast, law practice in Texas, working on a big book, temporarily teaching law in Boulder, Colorado...


...teaching law again in Boston, and, finally, law teaching in New York City.
