Time Magazine reported that Mark Lane was one of the three most popular speakers in the United States.
Mark Lane has spoken at hundreds of colleges, universities and law schools throughout the United States and Europe. His talks about the mysteries of the assassination of President Kennedy, the real story about the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and the untold facts about the massacre at Jonestown, Guyana have drawn thousands of students and faculty and have established the record for largest assemblies and numerous schools, large and small, from New York to California and including, for example, Northeast Louisiana University at Monroe, Louisiana (more than 4,000 present) and Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana (more than 6,000 present) and similar responses in almost every state.
His lectures about the James Richardson case and his discussion of capital punishment have been applauded by students and local law enforcement representatives. Mr. Lane has also spoken to business and industry groups, including Chambers of Commerce, regarding the role of executives to guard against sexual harassment law suits and other actions based upon discriminatory actions, by adhering to the law. He explains the complicated law in understandable terms.
Mr. Lane is completing his autobiography after 57 years as a trial lawyer in some of the most important cases in the last half century from the assassination of JFK, to the murder of Dr. King, to the fight for civil rights, to freeing an innocent man sentenced to death, as a Freedom Rider in Mississippi, as a member of the New York State Legislature and the author of New York Times best selling books. His remarkable talk “The Lawyer as a Reformer” is both riveting and educational.
Recently on Law Day, at an annual event sponsored by the Law Library of Congress and the American Bar Association, at a meeting chaired by Judge William Sessions, former Director of the FBI, Mr. Lane was named by the moderator of the panel as one of twelve lawyers honored as the example of Lawyers for Reform. Thus he joined, among others, the legendary trial lawyer, Clarence Darrow, United States Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall and Mahatma Gandhi, who were also named.
