Guest-Blogger: Kermit ("Kim") Roosevelt

T
his week's Time Magazine offers you Teddy Roosevelt; I go Time a step better this week by offering you as a guest-blogger TR's great-great-grandson: Kermit ("Kim") Roosevelt III.

Kim is an Associate Professor at the University of Pennsylvania School of Law, where he landed in 2002 after a clerkship with Associate Justice David Souter and a stint at Mayer, Brown and Platt.

For his "day job," he writes in the fields of constitutional law and conflict of laws. Perhaps he might be enticed into saying a few words about one of his recent pieces, "Guantanamo and the Conflict of Laws: Rasul and Beyond," which appeared last year in the Penn Law Review. (As if anyone were talking about Guantanamo these days!).

Kim also moonlights very successfully as a novelist. His first novel, "In the Shadow of the Law," is just now coming out in paperback. Perhaps he can be enticed into saying a few words about the novel, too, and about novel-writing more generally.

Please give Kim a warm welcome!
