Sixty years ago today.

Jeff Gamso: Criminal defense lawyer, former public defender, civil libertarian (former Legal Director of American Civil Liberties Union of Ohio), anti-death penalty activist, public speaker. Now mostly retired from the active practice of law. My first career was English Professor. I studied medieval and renaissance English Literature, taught literature, film, and composition. I've been a film critic. NONE OF WHAT APPEARS IN THIS BLOG SHOULD BE TAKEN AS LEGAL ADVICE. ALSO, PLEASE NOTE THAT THE STUFF I WRITE IS MINE ALONE. I STAND MORE OR LESS BEHIND IT, BUT I DO NOT SPEAK FOR ANY OTHER LAWYER OR ANY GROUP OF LAWYERS - OR ANYONE ELSE, FOR THAT MATTER.
