35 TH ANN I VERSARY OF THE CBA RECORD

Look Back at 35 Years of the CBA Record

Anniversaries allow us to look back with better understanding and look forward with more resolve. Thirty-five years ago, the CBA Record became the Chicago Bar’s flagship publication. As this anniversary issue attests, the more things change, the more they stay the same. The truth of this aphorism says a lot about human nature. Things have changed, yet the changes do not seem to have made the practice of law or our lives, for that matter, easier or better. As you read this issue, think about how you have changed in the past 35 years and what you hope for in the next five or ten years. (For the thousands of members who weren’t around 30 years ago, let alone 35, think about the past 20 years.) The CBA Record is produced by members for members. Thank you to all current and former editorial board members. (Names of current board members appear on page 4). Each issue of our six yearly issues entails a team effort in which every board member contributes. A shout-out to board members who have served 10 years or more: Carolyn Amadon, Amy Cook, Daniel A. Cotter, Cliff Gately, Judge Jasmine Villaflor Hernandez, John Levin, BonnieMcGrath, Pamela S. Menaker, Kathleen Dillon Narko, Adam Sheppard, and Rosemary Simola Thompson. Also, a big thank you to Sharon Nolan, the CBA’s multitalented Director of Marketing, who also serves as the CBA Record’s publication manager. Sharon is phenomenal and performs a time-consuming assignment with infinite care and energy. Finally, thanks to you, our readers and fellow members. We wel come your editorial submissions, letters-to-the-editor, and feedback. Justice Michael B. Hyman, Editor-in-Chief
