David Schwartz Retires – But Not from Journal

Congratulations to David Schwartz, Frederick W. & Vi Miller Professor of Law and Vilas Distinguished Achievement Professor, upon his retirement this spring after over 25 years of distinguished service at University of Wisconsin Law School. Schwartz will continue to serve as editor-in-chief of the Journal of American Constitutional History, a quarterly publication he founded in 2023. The two-time recipient of the Law School's Classroom Teacher of the Year Award (2004 and 2013) plans to keep researching and writing. A prolific constitutional law scholar, Schwartz has co-authored two casebooks: "Constitutional Law: a Context and Practice Casebook" (with Lori A. Ringhand) and "An Analytical Approach to Evidence: Text, Problems and Cases" (with Allen, Pardo & Stein). He also published the book "The Spirit of The Constitution: John Marshall and the 200-Year Odyssey of McCulloch v. Maryland" in 2019, and his current project, "The Myth of Enumeration: Federal Power and the Failure of Originalism" (with Andrew Coan) is forthcoming with Oxford University Press.
