For 200 years, Harvard Law School graduates have gone on to illustrious careers in law, government, business and other law-related endeavors. A significant number of HLS alums have also carved out a niche in the arts—as writers, actors, musicians, singers, artists, directors, producers, agents and more.
In September, as part of its bicentennial program, Harvard Law School celebrated the arts with a two-day festival featuring the work of alumni, staff, faculty and students. From musical performances, to spoken word poetry, to film screenings and book talks, to the satire of the Dragapella Beautyshop Quartet, HLS talent took center stage.
