Phi Delta Theta FraternityWhat’s been happening: I spent forty years as an international copyright lawyer for the Federal Government. I represented the US in trade and intellectual property negotiations in 48 countries as well as in Unesco, the World Trade Organization and, most notably, in the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). I retired from the US Patent and Trademark Office in 1997 and was appointed Deputy Director General at WIPO in Geneva, Switzerland where I served until 2000. When that term was over I fully retired to spend time with my family. |
