Abstract

From the video archives of the Cornell Law School Heritage Project. The interviewer-videographer is Thomas R. Bruce. This video covers Barber Conable's reflections on the special qualities of the Cornell Law School, the importance of his experience as a small town lawyer to his subsequent career as a state senator, Member of the US House of Representatives, and President of the World Bank. (Duration 22:08) The initial phase of this project was sponsored by a generous grant from the law firm of Sutherland Asbill and Brennan LLP.
