New York Times fetes 100-year-old UVA Law School grad

George Seward became a lawyer one year before he graduated from the UVA Law School, in 1936

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.
