Jack hired me for my very first job out of college, a litigation paralegal at the law firm of Chapman and Cutler in Chicago. I suspect it was because I had just graduated from Michigan, and he had gone to the University of Michigan Law School. He was very smart and kind and had a wonderful sense of humor. When I decided to apply to law school, he wrote a recommendation for me. RIP, Jack.
