It seems that former Darden professor John Douglas Forbes isn’t the only centenarian to hail from UVA. The New York Times’ City Room blog checks in today with George C. Seward, a 1936 graduate of the UVA Law School who still practices at Manhattan law firm Seward & Kissel. Seward, who also got his B.A. from UVA, formerly served as president of the school’s Arts & Sciences Council.
Like Forbes, Seward seems quite the raconteur. Read about his defense of a UVA janitor here.
Free news is good news!
Nearly $1 million a year goes into the work you’re reading—covering local government, spotlighting the arts, and telling the stories no one else does. If you value that, help fund it for $10 a month (or whatever tax-deductible gift you can afford). Save the free word.
