John Crawford, Associate Professor of Law
John Crawford joined the Hastings faculty in 2011, after serving as a lecturer and teaching fellow at Stanford Law School. Prior to his fellowship, he worked as a corporate associate at Davis Polk & Wardwell and clerked for the Honorable John T. Noonan, Jr., of the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit in San Francisco.

What I hope you get from a legal education at Hastings... the ability to think conceptually in a way that pays dividends throughout your legal career.
