Harvey A. Silverglate
Harvey A. Silverglate (born May 10, 1942) is an attorney in Cambridge, Massachusetts. He is the co-founder, with Alan Charles Kors, of the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE), for which he also serves as the current Chairman of the Board of Directors.〔(Harvey Silverglate profile ), Foundation for Individual Rights in Education website]; accessed March 20, 2008.〕
He holds degrees from Princeton University ('64) and Harvard Law School ('67). He is a practicing attorney, specializing in civil liberties litigation, criminal defense, academic freedom, and students' rights cases. He is Of Counsel to the Boston-based law firm (Zalkind Duncan & Bernstein LLP ).
In addition to his law practice, Silverglate is also a journalist and writer. He was a columnist for the ''Boston Phoenix'', writing on politics, law, and civil liberties.〔(Harvey Silverglate profile ), thephoenix.com; accessed March 20, 2008.〕 He also writes a regular column for Forbes.com, and has written columns and op-eds for the ''Wall Street Journal'', the ''Boston Globe'', the ''Los Angeles Times'', the ''National Law Journal'', Reason magazine, and other publications.〔(Harvey Silverglate publications ), harveysilverglate.com; accessed March 20, 2008.〕 He authored two books, ''The Shadow University: The Betrayal of Liberty on America's Campuses'' (co-authored with Alan Kors) and ''(Three Felonies a Day )'', which details the extension of vague federal criminal laws into daily conduct that would not be readily seen as criminal.
Silverglate was a featured speaker at a rally by Demand Progress in memory of Aaron Swartz and wrote an op-ed for ''Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly'' about his prosecution by the U.S. Attorney's Office. Lawyers familiar with the case told him the Middlesex County District Attorney's plan had been to resolve Swartz’s case by having it "...continued without a finding, with Swartz duly admonished and then returned to civil society to continue his pioneering electronic work in a less legally questionable manner."〔 As he explained to CNET's Declan McCullaghUnder such a disposition, the charge is held in abeyance (“continued”) without any verdict (“without a finding”). The defendant is on probation for a period of a few months up to maybe a couple of years at the most; if the defendant does not get into further legal trouble, the charge is dismissed, and the defendant has no criminal record. This is what the lawyers expected to happen when Swartz was arrested.〔McCullagh, Declan, in early February 2009. His platform〔(Harvey's Board of Overseers platform )〕 focused on reforming the student disciplinary board, eliminating speech codes, and restoring the student voice in university outreach efforts. His campaign had been covered in The Boston Globe〔Scot Lehigh, ("Free Speech at Harvard" ), boston.com; February 2009; accessed May 1, 2015.〕 and the ''Harvard Law Record'',〔Andrew Kalloch, ("Silverglate seeks spot as university overseer" ), hlrecord.org; accessed May 1, 2015.〕 and he made an appearance on Greater Boston with Emily Rooney.〔("Freedman on Greater Boston" (with Emily Rooney) ), streams.wgbh.org; accessed May 1, 2015.〕 Election results were announced at commencement, June 4, 2009, and Silverglate finished in eighth place, with 11,700 votes, 1600 short of winning a seat.〔Robert J. Ambrogi, (Lawyers Fail in Campaigns for Harvard Overseers ), legalblogwatch.typepad.com; accessed May 1, 2015.〕
Silverglate is married to the portrait photographer Elsa Dorfman. Their son Isaac lives in New York City.〔
