Description of Pictures: Supreme Court Justice Louis D. Brandeis, the Law and the 21st Century
As a Supreme Court justice (1916–1939), Louis D. Brandeis developed the modern jurisprudence of free speech and laid the basis for a constitutionally protected right to privacy. He helped draft the Federal Reserve Act, the Clayton Antitrust Act, and the law establishing the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). Melvin Urofsky, author of Louis D. Brandeis: A Life, and a distinguished panel discuss Brandeis’s story and his continuing effect on American society. Adam Liptak, Supreme Court correspondent for the New York Times, will moderate. Panelists include Jon Leibowitz, chairman of the FTC; Thomas L. Ambro, third circuit judge, U.S. Court of Appeals; and Maeva Marcus, director of the Graduate Institute for Constitutional History. Presented in partnership with the Freedom Forum’s First Amendment Center. A book signing of Louis D. Brandeis: A Life will follow the program.
Introductions were provided by Marvin Pinkert, Executive Director, Center for the National Archives Experience.
Remarks were provided by Ronald K. L. Collins, Scholar, First Amendment Center.

National Archives events
2009 photos: Equipment this year: I was using mostly the Fuji S100fs. I've also got a Nikon D90 and a newer Fuji -- the S200EHX -- both of which are nice but I still prefer the flexibility of the Fuji.
Trips this year: (1) quick jaunt to Niagara Falls, (2) quick jaunt to New York City, (3) the Civil War Preservation Trust annual conference in Gettysburg, (4) out west for the San Diego Comic-Con and various places, and (5) the Civil War Preservation Trust Grand Review in Springfield IL .
Ego strokes: I had a picture of a Lincoln-Obama cupcake sculpture published in Civil War Times and WUSA-9, the local CBS affiliate, ran a quick piece on me. A picture that I took at the annual Abraham Lincoln Symposium appeared in the National Archives' "Prologue" magazine.
Photos taken this year: 417,000 (over 1.5 million since I went digital back in 2002).
User page views this year: 22,700 (almost identical to last year -- definitely not an ego stroke!).
