Clarence Darrow: Attorney for the Damned   

Clarence Darrow, a leading U.S. defense attorney, practiced for 50 years in iconic cases like the Leopold and Loeb murder trial and the Scopes Monkey trial, where evolution clashed with religion. His moving speeches left jurors and judges in tears. Orson Welles, Spencer Tracy and Henry Fonda portrayed him in film. Beyond law, he wrote on atheism, economics, eugenics and prohibition. This class explores his life, philosophy, and key cases.
