When I was 23 and about to go to law school, I thought I'd spend the summer writing a novel.

There was a small point in my life in law school, right before I moved to Newark, when I didn't know what I wanted to do, and I felt so lost.

I was actually going to law school in 1972.

I was attracted to law school because I believed it would help me prepare for a career in the real world.

I worked my way through law school.

I went to law school after college.

I seem to get totally wrapped up in teaching and working with students during the school year. During the summer, I try to spend time in the real world, writing code for therapy and perhaps for some useful purpose.

I chose to go to law school because I thought that someday, somehow I'd make a difference.

I studied at UC Santa Cruz before going on to do a grad program at UCLA. Santa Cruz was like an awesome hippie summer camp. I got to take a vacation from reality and hang out on beaches and in forests.

When I went back to New Hampshire after graduating from law school, my plan was to go work for a private firm because I had to pay some student loans off and make money and really just be in the private practice of law. Which can be very rewarding.
