A Lawyer's Life: Law, Life, and the Space Between is a forum for exploring the fascinating things that
lawyers and former lawyers do with their degrees, both inside and
outside the law. This particular entry highlights Anna Neistat who is a remarkable woman who lives a remarkable life.
"Lawyers
like to say they go to “battle” in the courtroom and the boardroom. Here’s a
lawyer that goes to battle — literally — the kind with bullets, drones and
rockets. Meet Anna Neistat. She crosses borders under cover of darkness,
engages in car chases with militants and gets interrogated by corrupt armed
forces — and that’s just a Tuesday. I first met Anna when she was Associate
Director for Program and Emergencies at Human Rights Watch; she has since
joined Amnesty International as a Senior Director of Research, in Paris. E-Team,
a feature-length documentary in which she stars, premiered at the Sundance Film
Festival to widespread acclaim."
