Brooklyn’s Twerski to Receive Prosser Award

On behalf of the Torts and Compensation Systems Executive Committee, it gives me great pleasure to announce that the recipient of the 2016 William L. Prosser Award is Aaron Twerski of Brooklyn Law School. Through his work as Co-Reporter for the Restatement (Third) of Torts: Products Liability, his own scholarship, his contributions to multiple casebooks, his exemplary teaching, and his generosity toward other scholars, Aaron Twerski has made “outstanding contributions … in scholarship, teaching and service” of the kind that the Prosser Award was designed to recognize. I hope you will join the Executive Committee in offering our congratulations.

 

The award will be presented at our section meeting at 1:30 pm on January 8, 2016, during the AALS annual conference at the New York Hilton in New York City. We hope to see many of you there.

 

Many thanks to all of you who took the time to submit such thoughtful nominations to our nominating committee. Many thanks, too, to that committee, consisting of Mike Green, James Henderson, and Andy Klein. And finally, once again, many congratulations to Aaron.
