Susan Crawford and Brett Frischman Moving to Cardozo

Cardozo School of Law is making two important intellectual property lateral hires.  Susan Crawford is a Professor of Law at the University of Michigan (currently on leave to work in the Obama Administration as a Special Assistant to the President for Science, Technology, and Innovation Policy as part of the National Economic Council.  She is rejoining the Cardozo faculty; she started her academic career there in 2003.  (She had previously been a partner at Wilmer.)  Her focus is on communications law and the Internet.  She will join Cardozo next winter.  Brett Frischman is a Professor of Law at Loyola - Chicago.  He has been a prolific and highly-regarded scholar at the intersection of intellectual property law and internet infrastructure.  These two hires should be a significant boost for Cardozo's IP program and, in particular, its focus on cyberlaw.
