Early life
Crawford was born in 1963 and grew up in Santa Monica, where she attended Santa Monica High School, and played violin in the "Samohi" orchestra. According to her own website, she spent most of her time "hanging out in the band room" there. While at Yale, Crawford was the principal violist in the Yale Symphony Orchestra[1] and continues her daily practice and occasionally performs publicly.[2]
Education and career
Crawford holds a B.A. (summa cum laude, Phi Beta Kappa) and J.D. from Yale University. She served as a law clerk for Judge Raymond J. Dearie of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York, and was a partner at Wilmer, Cutler & Pickering (Washington, D.C.) until the end of 2002, when she left that firm to become a professor.
After first teaching at Cardozo School of Law in New York City, Crawford became a visiting Professor at the University of Michigan Law School in the fall of 2007. After visiting at Yale Law School in the spring of 2008, she was admitted to the faculty at the University of Michigan Law School.[3] On July 1, 2010 Crawford rejoined the faculty at Cardozo, and also commenced as a Visiting Research Collaborator at the Center for Information Technology Policy at Princeton.[4]
For calendar year 2012, Crawford visited Harvard's John F. Kennedy School of Government as the Stanton Professor of the First Amendment [5] and also was a Visiting Professor at Harvard Law School [6]
Internet activism
Crawford served as a member of the Board of Directors for ICANN from 2005-2008.[7] In 2005 she founded OneWebDay - a global celebration of the Internet. She is known as a champion of net neutrality, and has written on many other current policy issues.
In 2012, Yale University Press published her book, “Captive Audience: The Telecom Industry and Monopoly Power in the New Gilded Age.”[8]
In April 2014, Crawford proposed that a possible solution to net neutrality concerns may be municipal broadband.[9]
Public service
Crawford and Kevin Werbach served on the Federal Communications Commission Review team in the Obama transition.[10][11] In early 2009 Crawford was appointed the President's Special Assistant for Science, Technology, and Innovation Policy.[12] In October 2009 it was announced that she would step down when her one year sabbatical from the University of Michigan ended in January 2010.[13]
In October 2011 Crawford was appointed to Mayor Bloomberg's Council on Technology and Innovation.[14]
