Shani King writes: “I’m currently serving as vice dean, Martha L. Minow Scholar, and professor of law at Rutgers Law School. My third children’s book, Finding Rebecca: The Forgotten Life of Dr. Rebecca Lee Crumpler, was published by Tilbury House in October 2024. This nonfiction picture book introduces young readers to Dr. Rebecca Lee Crumpler, America’s first Black female doctor, whose remarkable life and achievements had largely vanished from historical records. The book aims to shed light on her story and ensure she is remembered. I’m now collaborating with my children on two new projects: a children’s book on Ivy League lacrosse with my son and another on girl empowerment with my daughter. Additionally, I’ve joined the board of the Lacrosse Club of Montclair, deepening my engagement with the sport. In family news, my wife and I cofounded a new law firm, King & Ruiz.” Contact Shani at [email protected]
