Newly published: Lawyers in Your Living Room! Law on Television (Michael Asimow, ed., Chicago: ABA, 2009).
Actors Sam Waterston (I'll Fly Away) and James Woods (Shark) have contributed forewords to this new collection of essays on lawyers, law shows and the craft of writing legal dramas and comedies. Other authors include Carrie Menkel-Meadow, Michael Asimow, Nancy S. Marder, Francis (Mike) Nevins, Bob Jarvis, Kimberlianne Podlas, Taunya Banks, and from across the pond, Steve Greenfield, Guy Osborn, and Peter Robson, and covers such shows as The Defenders, Rumpole of the Bailey, Shark, Law & Order, Matlock, daytime "judge" shows, and foreign legal shows. A great gift for Father's Day, graduation, entering first years....(Full disclosure: I have a piece in the book as well). The entire work (more than 400 pages) is ably edited by Michael Asimow.
