Appointed dean in May 2011, Michael M. Martin has displayed unflagging dedication to Fordham Law School since he joined the faculty in 1972. In addition to serving on numerous Law School and University committees, he was faculty moderator for the Fordham Law Review from 1983 to 1995, associate dean from 1995 to 2001, and interim dean from 2010 to 2011. He twice stepped in on short notice to serve as associate dean for administration. In 2001 and 2010 he received the Dean’s Medal of Recognition, and in 2005 he was named Teacher of the Year.
Dean Martin’s scholarship is as distinguished as his commitment to Fordham Law. His principal subjects are Torts, Civil Procedure, Evidence, and Conflicts of Law. He is a co-author of the 5-volume Federal Rules of Evidence Manual and of the New York Evidence Handbook. He has also written other books, law review articles, and, for 26 years, a column on Evidence for the New York Law Journal.
