The Forum welcomed legendary television and film actor Sam Waterston for a wide-ranging Conversation about his iconic portrayal of New York District Attorney Jack McCoy in Law & Order, as well as his leading role in the critically acclaimed TV series I'll Fly Away, and the award-winning film The Killing Fields. No actor outside of Gregory Peck's Atticus Finch has portrayed lawyers as convincingly and compellingly as Sam Waterston. He has even played the role of Abraham Lincoln on stage. Attendance at this event was tremendous and the audience enjoyed a spectacular evening of Conversation and clips with one of America's finest and most distinguished actors.
