Lino Anthony Graglia (born January 22, 1930) is the A. W. Walker Centennial Chair in Law at the University of Texas specializing in antitrust litigation. He earned a BA from the City College of New York in 1952, and an LLB from Columbia University in 1954, before working in the Eisenhower administration's United States Department of Justice. He thereafter practiced law in Washington, D.C. and New York City before joining the University of Texas' law school in 1966.〔(Paul, Miller, and Paul. ''Freedom of Speech, Volume 21, list of contributors. )〕 Graglia is "one of the most conservative legal academics in the United States."〔Kozlowski & Lewis, The Myth of the Imperial Judiciary 12 (2006)〕 He is a well known critic of affirmative action and racial quotas, and a critic of some aspects of judicial review, believing that the courts are an illegitimate avenue for securing social change. He accuses modern liberals of making an end-run around democracy by seeking political victories in front of judges instead of at the ballot box. His wife, F. Carolyn Graglia, is an author who has written a book critical of feminism entitled ''Domestic Tranquility: A Brief Against Feminism''. == Failed nomination to the Fifth Circuit ==
In the mid-1980s, Graglia was considered by President Ronald Reagan for a newly created federal judgeship on the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, but he eventually was withdrawn in late spring 1986 due to controversy over articles Graglia had written about desegregation busing as well as remarks Graglia made which were alleged to be racially insensitive.〔http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1P3-23171407.html〕 The following year, Reagan nominated Jerry Edwin Smith to the seat to which Graglia had been nominated, and Smith was confirmed easily.
