Creator:
American Law Institute

The American Law Institute (ALI) was founded in 1923 in response to a perceived uncertainty and complexity in American law.
An association of practitioners and scholars known as the “Committee on the Establishment of a Permanent Organization for
Improvement of Law” published a study that recommended a lawyers’ organization be formed to improve the law and its administration.
The committee was chaired by Elihu Root and counted Learned Hand, Benjamin Cardozo, and Samuel Williston among its members.
This photograph collection is comprised of portraits of ALI directors, presidents, members, and staff. Also included are photographs
from the Annual Meeting, including the 1st Annual Meeting in 1923.
