The Straus Institute for Dispute Resolution celebrates its 25th anniversary with an exciting new conversation series.

Ken Feinberg is among the best known figures in the field of conflict resolution. He served as the special master of the U.S. government's September 11th Victim Compensation Fund-chronicled in his book What Is Life Worth? (2005) - a role in which he served pro bono for almost three years. He was later appointed special master for the TARP Executive Compensation initiative ("pay czar") and, in June 2010, was named to run the BP Deepwater Horizon Disaster Victim Compensation Fund, a $20 billion fund to pay claims resulting from the BP Gulf Oil Spill. He is an active mediator and arbitrator.

We hope that you will join us for what is sure to be a stimulating conversation.
