SCCJ Professor and former Chief Justice of the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts, Judge Roderick Ireland, was the subject of a New York University oral history project on distinguished American judges. Watch as Ireland reflects on his illustrious career- both the challenges and triumphs.
Chief Justice Ireland was interviewed by Shalanda Baker, his former law clerk at the SJC, who is not only an alumni of Northeastern University School of Law, but also a Professor of Law, Public Policy and Urban Affairs. Currently, Baker is the Director of the Office of Economic Impact and Diversity at the U.S. Department of Energy, and Secretarial Advisor on Equity.
