Anthony Kronman
Author, "After Disbelief and The Assault on American Excellence" | Sterling Professor of Law,Yale Law School | Former Dean, Yale Law School

Anthony Kronman is a writer, lawyer, Sterling Professor of Law at Yale Law School, and a former dean of the Yale Law School from 1994 -2004.
Anthony is the author or coauthor of six books, including, The Assault on American Excellence. In it Professor Kronman makes a radical argument that to graduate as good citizens, college students have to be tested in a system that isn’t wholly focused on being good to them. He is also author of Confessions of a Born-Again Pagan and Education's End.
In his new book, After Disbelief: On Disenchantment, Disappointment, Eternity, and Joy Anthony offers an alternative to two entrenched positions: people of faith believe the meaning of life depends on our connection to an eternal order of some kind and atheists deride this belief as a childish superstition. He argues that neither addresses the complexities of the human condition.
Professor Kronman taught at the University of Minnesota Law School from 1975 to 1976, and the University of Chicago Law School from 1976 to 1978, before joining the Yale faculty. Professor Kronman teaches in the areas of contracts, bankruptcy, jurisprudence, social theory, and professional responsibility at Yale Law School. In addition, he also teaches undergraduate classes in literature, philosophy, and history and politics as part of the Directed Studies program at Yale.
Outside of his academic obligations, Kronman has served on the board of various non-profit organizations including the Foote School in New Haven, Yale University Press, and the Slifka Center for Jewish Life at Yale. From 2002 to 2006, Professor Kronman served as a Director of Adelphia Communications Corporation. He was the Lead Director of the company for three of these years. Professor Kronman has been Of Counsel to the law firm of Boies Schiller Flexner since June, 2008.
Anthony Kronman is a member of Council on Foreign Relations and a Fellow in the American Bar Foundation, the Connecticut Bar Foundation and American Academy of Arts and Sciences.
