    About the Author

    Lisa Paddock is a lawyer and freelance writer who has been writing about the law since graduating from the University of Michigan Law School in 1989. While practicing law in New York City, she acted as consulting legal editor for Great American Trials (Gale Research, 1994). In 1996, her book, Facts About the Supreme Court of the United States of America (H.W. Wilson, 1996), was voted one of the years best reference books by the Reference and User Service Association of the American Library Association. Since then, she has continued to write about the Supreme Court and other courts for publications such as The Encyclopedia of American Biography (HarperCollins, 1996) and Courtroom Drama (UXL, 1998).

    Before becoming a lawyer, Lisa taught literature and worked as a stock broker. Her PhD in English, when combined with a law degree, almost inevitably led to an interest in intellectual property, and she has frequently advised other writers, as well as writers organizations, on copyright matters. One of her best clients is her husband, the biographer Carl Rollyson. Lisa and Carl and their Scotties live in Cape May County, New Jersey, where they frequently collaborate on literary projects and long walks on the beach.

    Authors Acknowledgments

    Thanks go to my agent, Elizabeth Knappman, for thinking of me in connection with this project. Id like to extend my gratitude, too, to her staff at New England Publishing Associates for their help along the way.

    At Wiley Publishing, Inc., my first thanks go to Acquisitions Editor Greg Tubach, who did a supremely wonderful job formulating this project and shepherding it through the early stages. Editorial Supervisor Michele Hacker and Project Coordinator Nancee Reeves helped smooth out the transitions from conception to completion. And the always upbeat, ever encouraging, utterly professional Kelly Ewing who served as both Project Editor and Copy Editor has earned my everlasting gratitude and respect.

    My technical editor (and hero), Pam Heatlie, saved me from some faux pax and helped keep me au courant.

    I had help retrieving illustrations from several individuals and institutions. Thanks to Franz Jantzen and the staff of the United States Supreme Court Curators Office; Kelly M. Jones and the staff of the Supreme Court Historical Society Gift Shop; and Margaret Harman and the staff of the AudioVisual Archives at the Lyndon B. Johnson Library & Museum.

    And then theres my husband, Carl Rollyson, who carried far more than his share of the burden while I was working on this project. Without him truly this book would never have been finished.

    Thank you, one and all.
