"I graduated from law school during the Vietnam Era. These were tumultuous times and I wasn't certain whether to enter a business career or to pursue the practice of law. I was encouraged to go into the law by two uncles who were very prominent New York attorneys. I followed their advice and during a most rewarding career in the practice of law, I never once doubted my choice of the legal profession.
