About the Event
A presentation by Brigham Young University Advancement Vice President and former Dean of the J. Reuben Clark Law School, Kevin J Worthen. The title of Professor Worthen’s presentation is “J. Reuben Clark: A Heritage of Service.”

J. Reuben Clark (1871 – 1961), a graduate of Columbia University Law School, served as Solicitor for the Department of State, U.S. Ambassador to Mexico, and Under Secretary of State. In 1933 Brother Clark was called to serve in the First Presidency as Second Counselor to President Heber J. Grant. The J. Reuben Clark Law School is named in President Clark’s honor, and the L. Tom Perry Special Collections is the repository for the J. Reuben Clark papers.
