Jack Greenberg

Jack Greenberg is an American attorney and legal scholar. He was the Director-Counsel of the NAACP Legal Defense Fund from 1961 to 1984, succeeding Thurgood Marshall.
He was involved in numerous crucial cases, including Brown v. Board of Education. In all, he has argued 40 civil rights cases before the U.S. Supreme Court. He is Alphonse Fletcher Jr. Professor of Law Emeritus at Columbia Law School, and has previously served as dean of Columbia College and vice dean of Columbia Law School. Greenberg has varied intellectual interests: aside from several books on law and civil rights, including Crusaders in the Courts, he has written a cookbook (Dean Cuisine, with Harvard Law School Dean James Vorenberg, 1990), and appeared as a panelist for a New York Times tasting of Oregon pinot noir. He also edited Franz Kafka: The Office Writings (Princeton: Princeton University Press, 2008) with two other scholars.
