Brooklyn Law School honors former Mayor Dinkins, seven others at Icons Gala
Brooklyn Law School went all out with a night of stories, dinner and fireworks to honor some of its most famous professors and alumni including former Mayor David Dinkins during its Icons Gala on Ellis Island Thursday night.
“The women and men who are going to take this stage here tonight have all helped Brooklyn Law School’s national reputation, have made significant contributions in their fields. They represent a legacy and share a spotlight with many Brooklyn Law School greats,” said the evening’s master of ceremonies, Brian T. Sullivan.
“To look at this room and think about the many people who came through here a hundred years ago, many of the people in this room are probably descendants of those people who came to this country with a nickel in their pocket and a dream,” Sullivan continued.
