EVENTS






The Law School’s popular series of Career 

Connections events continued throughout 2013. 

Each gathering featured a diverse mix of some of 
our most distinguished alumni working in speciic 

practice areas. The alumni speakers shared how 

the legal training they received at New York Law 

School prepared them for success in their careers, 

and offered students insights into how to build 
their own careers.

Group, spoke to the Law School community about his experience turning a family business into a multibillion- 
dollar hedge fund and his time as a fundraiser for the Democratic Party.
