A two-week road trip has a lot of moving parts, and more than a few surprises along the way. Here are some of the journalism lessons I’ll take away from the first half of our adventure:
The Rebels tour crew is about to hit the Big Apple (if the Big Apple doesn’t hit us first), and we want to get together with anybody who’s interested in Rebels, the ABA or the practice of law.
The fine folks at the Legal Talk Network were kind enough to ask Rebels Tour crew members Ed and Rachel to appear yesterday on the latest installment of their Lawyer2Lawyer podcast.
Our first official tour day was action-packed. In the morning, we visited our first Rebel of the journey, Cheryl Conner, at her home in Sherborn, Mass., her wooded property as our backdrop.
As we motor down I-95 from Sept. 14-25, we’ll be stopping along the way to visit with some of the most innovative lawyers in big firms, solo practice, bar associations, law schools, nonprofits and legal technology companies.
With more than 200 nominations of could-be Legal Rebels, we had a lot of choices of where to go for our Rebel-a-day road trip. Our choice – the tradition-bound but hungry BosWash corridor, right down that scenic boulevard I-95.
The ABA Journal wants to host and facilitate conversations among lawyers about their profession. We are now accepting thoughtful, non-promotional articles and commentary by unpaid contributors.
