I didn’t know anyone at the meeting, didn’t know what was expected of me, and had absolutely no idea about the structure of the HCBA.

Art and Law: Not So Different?
(?)
Terrance C. Newby

Feb 28, 2023
As a novelist, playwright, and litigation attorney, I am often struck by the similarities between my interests. Lawyers use the tools of novelists, playwrights, and photographers to tell our clients’ stories. Whether you try cases before a jury or draft contracts for corporate clients far from a courtroom, the practice of law incorporates the wordcraft of the novel, the drama of theater, and the simple power of the photograph.
