Cass R. Sunstein

Cass R. Sunstein is the most-cited law professor on any faculty in the United States (and probably the world). Starting in the fall of 2008, he will be a professor at the Harvard Law School where he will direct the Program on Risk Regulation.

In the winter, he will also be Harry Kalven Visiting Professor of Law at the University of Chicago. "The preeminent legal scholar of our time - the most wide-ranging, the most prolific, the most cited, and the most influential," says Harvard Law School Dean Elena Kagan. As an author or co-author of more than 15 books and hundreds of academic articles, Sunstein has crossed academic borders throughout his career to offer unique insights on law, public policy, economics, and psychology.

Sunstein has also written regularly for leading newspapers and magazines, and been interviewed on all the major television networks. He taught at the University of Chicago for 27 years, worked at the Department of Justice, and clerked for former Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall. He has worked with the national executive branch on many questions, testified before Congress on many occasions, and advised a number of countries, including China, South Africa, and Russia, on constitution-making and legal reform.
