About
Robert E. Shepherd, Jr. was professor of law at the University of Richmond School of Law, joining the faculty in 1978 and retiring from his professorship in 2001. Even after retirement, he served as professor emeritus and continued teaching until his death. Shepherd taught classes on "Children and the Law," "Family Law," and "Contracts," amongst other topics. Winner of the university's distinguished educator award in both 1981 and 1986, he was a visiting professor during the fall of 2008 at the Washington and Lee School of Law, from whence he himself had graduated in 1961. A paper he wrote for the W&L law review became a draft of Virginia's first statute on child abuse and set Shepherd on track for his career. In a 2001 interview with the law school's magazine, he said, "There was a real sense that laws for children were civil rights laws. It was a very exciting time." He also received his undergraduate degree at Washington & Lee University, in 1959.
