About this Event

The Taubman Center is honored to host the Noah Krieger ’93 Memorial Lecture featuring Justice Stephen Breyer, retired Associate Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. In this special event, Justice Breyer will share insights from his distinguished career and explore the themes of constitutional interpretation and democracy at the heart of his latest book, Reading the Constitution: Why I Chose Pragmatism, Not Textualism.

Moderated by Brown alumnus Justin Driver, the Robert R. Slaughter Professor of Law at Yale Law School, this conversation offers a rare opportunity to hear from one of the most influential legal minds of our time. Justice Breyer will reflect on the role of the judiciary, the evolving meaning of the Constitution, and its impact on contemporary governance.

Copies of Reading the Constitution will be available for purchase.

This event is co-sponsored by the Brown University Pre-Law Society and the Brown 2026 Initiative.
