Abstract: The Charles Fried papers primarily represent Fried's work as a professor at Harvard Law School from 1961-1992, and his service as the United States Solicitor General under President Ronald Reagan from 1985-1989. The bulk of the collection dates from the 1980s, but spans from 1958 through 1993. The majority of the collection contains professional documents, though there are some notable personal and scholarly materials, particularly opinion editorials. The collection also includes course material, correspondence, clippings, Supreme Court case files, and both handwritten and typewritten lecture and research notes. The topics represented throughout the collection mainly relate to Fried's professional and scholarly expertise in legal ethics, criminal law, tort law, and constitutional law.
