Autorenporträt
Bernie Lambek grew up in Montreal. He graduated from Yale Law School, held a judicial clerkship on the Second Circuit Court of Appeals, and has practiced law at Zalinger Cameron & Lambek in Montpelier, Vermont, for the past 25 years. He represents a number of school districts around Vermont, occasionally dealing with issues of student speech and religion in the schools. In a 2012 lawsuit, Lambek and ACLU colleagues successfully challenged the practice of holding official prayer at town meeting in Vermont. Uncivil Liberties is his first novel.
