An Open Letter to Steven Emanuel

Dear God, I mean Steven Emanuel,

Thank you for making such helpful law school outlines.  You give me black letter law and bright line rules, and are there for me when I need it most.  I apologize for anyone who disparages your wisdom, saying that they don’t “use” commercial outlines.  Fear not, though, because they are simply confused.  Yours is a wisdom, not a drug; a hornbook, not that kid’s outline from last year.

Sincerely,

A law student

I was interested in who he is and how he got into the business.  Bio is below –

Steve Emanuel’s life’s work has been to help law students become lawyers. While Steve was a first-year law student at Harvard Law School in 1974, he sat in his dorm room writing and publishing the first Emanuel Law Outline, in Civil Procedure. He gradually wrote and published additional titles in the Emanuel series, while making a brief detour to practice law in New York City for two years in the mid 1970s. Today, the Emanuel series is the best-selling line of law school study aids, with more than 65 titles. As part of Emanuel Publishing Corp. (“EPC”), of which Steve was president and owner, Steve acquired and/or started the CrunchTime, Law in a Flash, Siegel’s and Strategies & Tactics series, and has written or co-written most of the titles in these series. Nearly 2 million copies of study aids authored or co-authored by Steve have been sold. Steve sold EPC to Aspen Publishers in 2001, and continues to do all revisions on about 20 of the titles in the ELO and CrunchTime series. Steve is a member of the New York and Connecticut bars (since 1977 and 2007 respectively), and is awaiting admission to the Pennsylvania bar, which he passed in 2007. He has waited his entire career for the right time to enter the bar review business, and has decided that that time is 2008, in conjunction with Aspen. Steve is a graduate of Amherst College and Harvard Law School.
