                      TRIBUTE TO DAVID R. GLICKMAN

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. BRAD SHERMAN

                             of california

                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, September 9, 1997

  Mr. SHERMAN. Mr. Speaker, it is with great pleasure I rise before you 
today to pay tribute to David R. Glickman, who will be honored by the 
Consumer Attorneys Association of Los Angeles for his distinguished 
career in the legal profession.
  Since graduating from UCLA Law School in 1957, Mr. Glickman has 
relentlessly dedicated his time and energy to the legal profession. His 
40 years of practice have been highlighted by several awards and honors 
in recognition of his distinguished service. The Consumer Attorneys 
Association of Los Angeles named David Glickman Trial Lawyer of the 
Year in 1977, then honored him again in 1991 with the Ted Horn Memorial 
Award. He is a former president of the Los Angeles chapter of the 
national organization of the American Board of Trial Advocates, and in 
1998 he will serve on their national board of governors. These honors, 
in addition to many others, are a testament to the vital role David 
Glickman has played in the Los Angeles legal community.
  Despite all of these outstanding accomplishments, perhaps the roles 
David Glickman is best known for is teacher, mentor, and friend. He has 
been a frequent lecturer and instructor for every law school in Los 
Angeles County. Young lawyers and former students value Mr. Glickman as 
a trusted resource when they are struggling with a problem. Henry 
Brooks Adams once wrote: `` A teacher affects eternity. He can never 
tell where his influence stops.'' It is apparent that David Glickman's 
wisdom is a guiding force for several aspiring attorneys.
  In addition to his numerous responsibilities, David has still found 
time to contribute to our community by starting the Indians Guide 
Tribe, of which he was the local chief, and he initiated a local 
chapter of Boy Scouts and was the troop leader for 2 years.
  Whether in the courtroom, classroom, or community, David Glickman has 
selflessly dedicated his time and energy to others. Mr. Speaker, 
distinguished colleagues, please join me in paying tribute to David R. 
Glickman for being a true role model for the citizens of Los Angeles.
