Let’s face it: law review articles are pretty dry. So in 1997, Ross Davies and two classmates from the University of Chicago Law School revived an out-of-print legal magazine, The Green Bag, as an “Entertaining Journal of Law,” dedicated to shorter articles on more interesting topics, and with fewer footnotes. Now, 17 years later, Davies remains the Editor-in-Chief of The Green Bag, which has branched out into other publications such as the Journal of Law, the Green Bag Almanac & Reader, as well as Green Bag’s signature line of Supreme Court bobbleheads. This would seem like a full-time job in itself, but Davies also teaches administrative law, contracts, American legal history, and torts at the George Mason School of Law.
