Three GW Law professors were highlighted in GW's annual philanthropy impact report, a comprehensive review of how donor support has made a tangible difference in the GW community and beyond.
The report featured Mary Anne Franks, the Eugene L. and Barbara A. Bernard Professor in Intellectual Property, Technology, and Civil Rights Law, for her expertise at the intersection of civil rights, free speech, and technology. Franks is also the president of the Cyber Civil Rights Initiative, a nonprofit organization dedicated to combating online abuse and discrimination.
The report recognized F. Scott Kieff, the Stevenson Bernard Professor of Law and Faculty Director of the Center for Law, Economics & Finance. Kieff is a former commissioner on the U.S. International Trade Commission and an advisor to three presidential administrations. He is an expert in intellectual property law, antitrust law, economics, and the politics of innovation.
Finally, the report featured Daniel J. Solove, the Eugene L. and Barbara A. Bernard Professor in Intellectual Property and Technology Law and the Faculty Co-Director of the GW Center for Law and Technology. The center, which launched last year, places "GW at the forefront of legal education in the rapidly evolving fields of privacy, cyber, AI, and emerging technologies while continuing to expand its global leadership in IP law," the report said. Solove is the most cited legal scholar in the law and technology field. He has also authored five books on privacy and data security, testified before Congress, and contributed to amicus briefs before the U.S. Supreme Court.
