It is with sadness that we have learned of the death of Barbara Bressler Garson. Barbara joined DePaul in 1984, and after many years as a law professor in the College of Law, she retired in 2017 as an associate dean of Experiential Education and the director emeritus of its Center for Intellectual Property Law and Information Technology. Barbara founded the nation's first technology and intellectual property clinical program in 2000. The program assists artists with legal services to protect their creative work. Barbara passed away at the age of 67, and is survived by her husband, two brothers, and many nieces, nephews, and friends.
A service will be held this Friday, May 4 at 10:00 a.m. at Chicago Jewish Funerals, 8851 Skokie Boulevard, Skokie. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations are appreciated to the Howard Bressler Memorial Campership at Congregation Shalom, https://www.cong-shalom.org/
