The detailed list of persons selected to the National Association of Corporate Directors/Directorship Magazine's list of "list of the most influential governance professionals and institutions" is now available online. There are only 10 academics on the list, including:
William T. Allen--New York University
Stephen Bainbridge -- UCLA
Lucian A. Bebchuk and Jay W. Lorsch -- Harvard University
Duke Bristow -- USC
John C. Coffee Jr.-- Columbia University
Steven M. Davidoff -- Ohio State and NY Times Deal Professor
Charles M. Elson -- University of Delaware
Joseph A. Grundfest and F. Daniel Siciliano-- Stanford University
Jeffrey A. Sonnenfeld -- Yale University
It's very impressive group and I'm honored to have been included. Interestingly, Charles Elson and I were law school class mates and fellow members of the Virginia Law Review. The Class of 1985 did UVa proud, I think.
