Lisa A. Eichhorn* As part of its celebration of the 30th anniversary of the founding of Legal Writing: The Journal of the Legal Writing Institute, the current Editorial Board reached out to past editors-in-chief to ask for their reflections. The following seven essays describe everything from the early days of production, complete with snail mail and floppy disks; to the variety of insightful, innovative articles that have appeared in these pages; to symposium issues and tributes to lost colleagues that merit rereading today. While each editor-in-chief stresses that the publication of each volume was very much a collaborative effort, everyone in the field owes a particular debt to those individuals who have taken the helm of Legal Writing over the years and thereby advanced this new and continually developing discipline. * Director of Legal Writing & Professor of Law.
