Thank you, Jennifer Leonard, for a fantastic season of the Fast-Tracked podcast! When we started talking about this idea last year, I knew you’d be sharing some thought-provoking and useful conversations – but to hear it all come to life has been even better than expected. I’m so proud of the work you and the PLI team have done, and appreciate the contributions of your remarkable guests. I encourage anyone interested in keeping up with these unprecedented times in the legal profession – and planning for what’s ahead – to check it out, and to stay tuned for even more great discussions in coming months. Truly an enjoyable listen – looking forward to Season Two!
On this season's last episode of the Fast-Tracked podcast, host Jennifer Leonard welcomes guests Brad Karp of Paul, Weiss and Jami Wintz McKeon of Morgan Lewis to share insights from their careers as leaders of their respective firms as well as in the broader profession.

Congratulations to Justice Renwick on this historic occasion! Honored to have her as a PLI Board member.
Congratulations to PLI Trustee Hon. Dianne T. Renwick, whose historic Investiture as Presiding Justice of the New York State Supreme Court, Appellate Division, First Department took place today. Appointed as Presiding Justice by Gov. Kathy Hochul in June of last year, Justice Renwick is the first woman of color to serve as Presiding Justice of any Appellate Division in New York State, and only the second woman to lead the First Department since its creation in 1894. She was elected to PLI’s Board in 2021. We’re very thankful for her ongoing contributions to PLI and to improving the legal profession. https://bddy.me/42axAIm
