Right of Publicity

Jennifer Rothman, Guest-Blogging About the Right of Publicity

|

I'm delighted to report that my friend (and former student) Prof. Jennifer Rothman (Loyola [L.A.] Law School) will be guest-blogging this coming week about the right of publicity. Jennifer has been writing extensively and for a long time about the right of publicity -- as well as about intellectual property more generally, and about other matters -- and she has just published an excellent new Harvard University Press book on the subject, The Right of Publicity: Privacy Reimagined for a Public World. (She also recently founded an excellent online resource for state-by-state legal research on the right of publicity, Rothman's Roadmap to the Right of Publicity.) I much look forward to Jennifer's posts, and you should, too!
