Richard L. Brodsky (born May 4, 1946) is an American lawyer and politician from New York. ==Biography== He was born on May 4, 1946, in Brooklyn, New York City. In 1955, the family moved to Westchester County. He attended Ardsley High School. He graduated from Brandeis University and in 1971 from Harvard Law School. He entered politics as a Democrat.〔(''New York Red Book'' ) (1991–1992; pg. 246)〕 He was a member of the New York State Assembly from 1983 to 2010, sitting in the 185th, 186th, 187th, 188th, 189th, 190th, 191st, 192nd, 193rd, 194th, 195th, 196th, 197th and 198th New York State Legislatures. In 2006 Brodsky announced his intentions of running for Attorney General of New York, a campaign that he suspended in order to donate a kidney to his 14-year-old daughter. He didn't wind up donating, but has introduced legislation that would make consent to organ donation presumptive for New York residents.〔http://www.syracuse.com/news/index.ssf/2010/05/after_watching_his_daughter_wa.html〕 After the resignation of State Comptroller Alan Hevesi, Brodsky was a frontrunner to succeed the scandal-ridden Hevesi. Thomas DiNapoli was selected instead by the Legislature to serve out the rest of Hevesi's term. Brodsky later ran to succeed NYS Attorney General Andrew Cuomo in the 2010 elections, but lost to Eric Schneiderman in the primary.〔(Assemblyman Drops Out Of Attorney General Race )〕 Richard Brodsky is on the Board of Advisors of the Global Panel Foundation.
