| | Linda Greenhouse, Pulitzer Prize-Winning New York Times Supreme Court Journalist, To Speak on 'Court, Country and ... |
 | | Greenhouse, who appears at the University as a Phi Beta Kappa Visiting Scholar, is the author of the new biography, "Becoming Justice Blackmun: Harry Blackmun's Supreme Court Journey" (2005), the story of a judge known for his probity, humanity, and keen sense of civic responsibility. |
 | | Her new study of Harry Blackmun ably demonstrates that what sets Greenhouse apart are her lucid writing about complex legal matters, and her appreciation that the justices shape the work of the Court and are in turned shaped by it. |
 | | Greenhouse's lecture, "Court, Country and Culture," is sponsored by the New York State Writers Institute, Phi Beta Kappa, the Alpha Alpha Chapter of New York, UAlbany's Office of the President, the College of Arts and Sciences, the Departments of English, History and Political Science, the Journalism Program, and Rockefeller College. |
