CQ's Stern To Co-Author Brennan Bio

The long-awaited authorized biography of the late Justice William Brennan Jr. is back on track. Biographer Stephen Wermiel, associate professor at American University’s Washington College of Law, said last week he has recruited a collaborator and co-author to help “jump-start” the completion of the work, which he began in 1986 while Brennan was still on the Court. Wermiel covered the Court for The Wall Street Journal at the time.

“I’m excited about it,” said Wermiel, 56.
