Biographical / Historical
Peter L. Paull Jr. graduated from the Law School in 1967 and has been practicing law in New Bedford, Massachusetts, since 1970. He is also admitted to practice in Virginia and Connecticut.
The Libel Show is an annual theatrical production lampooning law professors and Law School life. Originated by the Phi Delta Phi legal fraternity in 1908, by 1961 the size of the show had outgrown the population of the fraternity and became an independent production. The Libel Show includes a variety of impresonations, song parodies, and skits.
