David S. Schoenbrod is a trustee professor of law at New York Law School.[1]

From 1972-79 Schoenbrod's work with the Natural Resources Defense Council made the United States Environmental Protection Agency begin reducing tetraethyl lead in gasoline sooner than they were going to.[2][3][4] He also campaigned to resurrect the then-decrepit New York City subway,[5] and protect the environment of Puerto Rico. Previously, he was Director of Program Development at the community development project that Senator Robert Kennedy established in Bedford Stuyvesant. He has also been a senior fellow at the Cato Institute[6] and the American Enterprise Institute[7] and now is a senior fellow at the Niskanen Center.[8]

His most recent book is DC Confidential: Inside the Five Tricks of Washington (Encounter Books, 2017) with forewords by Governor Howard Dean and Senator Mike Lee (Encounter Books, 2017).[9][10]
