ABOUT NATIONAL BAR ASSOCIATION The National Bar Association was founded in 1925 and is the nation's oldest and largest national network of predominantly African-American or Black attorneys and judges. It represents the interests of over 65,000 lawyers, judges, law professors and law students. The NBA is organized around 23 substantive law sections, 9 divisions, 12 regions and 84 affiliate chapters throughout the United States and around the world. As executives and decision makers, the NBA constituency controls millions in procurement and consumer dollars. Its members include corporate executives, elected officials, judicial officials, as well as members of large, small, and solo firms all of whom are interested in a wide variety of products and services. Whether in the public or private sector, African American attorneys are constantly seeking opportunities for professional and personal growth.
ABOUT
THE NBA’S 40 LAWYERS UNDER 40
The NBA’s 40 Under 40 Awards program recognizes the nation’s top lawyers under 40 who exemplify a broad
range of high achievement, including in innovation, vision, leadership and legal and community involvement. The
awardees typically represent a cross-section of legal professionals, including lawyers from big, medium and
small firms, solo and industry practitioners, government lawyers, judges, academicians, corporate counsels,
elected officials, and various other lawyers, all of whom are using their degrees in innovative and
community-impacting ways. An independent selection panel reviewed a substantial submission of world-wide
nominees, from which the panel selected the 40 individuals to receive the prestigious awards, which will be
presented at the National Bar Association’s illustrious 40 Under 40 Awards Black Tie Gala on August 1,
2018, during the NBA’s 93rd Annual Convention in New Orleans, Louisiana.

ABOUT NEW ORLEANS Perhaps no other city in America keeps its history as vital or as accessible as New Orleans. Entire neighborhoods, whole buildings, cemetery crypts, manhole covers, cobblestone streets and ancient oaks serve as touchstones to vanished eras. Look for it. In New Orleans, history can strut as loudly as a Carnival walking krewe or creep as softly as a green lizard on a courtyard wall. Thrilling. Colorful. Tragic. Inspiring. Discover a little about the sweep of the city’s history. On August 29, 2005, category 5 Hurricane Katrina swung past New Orleans, driving a storm surge that breached four levees, flooding 80 percent of the city. Hundreds were killed, and thousands were trapped for days in harsh conditions before state and federal rescuers came to their aid. Many of the evacuees never returned home and some neighborhoods, especially the lower Ninth Ward, are still recovering. A highlight for many in the difficult few years after Katrina came on Feb. 7, 2010 when the city’s beloved New Orleans Saints won the team’s first ever Super Bowl game against the champion Indianapolis Colts. The cheers were heard around the United States. Many displaced natives made a point of being not in Miami where the game was played, but in New Orleans to celebrate with the rest of the city. New Orleans remains a city of rich culture, proud people and entrenched neighborhoods that have survived and thrived against odds. New Orleanians have always held tight to their unique culture, pride of place, music, cuisine and festivals and tourists from around the world can’t stay away. This year, 2018, marks New Orleans’ 300th year.
