Daniel I. Halperin, a U.S. Treasury official during the Carter administration and current Gerogetown law school professor, has accepted a tenured position at Harvard Law School.
Law School Dean Robert C. Clark announced on July 28 that Halperin will join the faculty in September, 1996.
"I have devoted my research and writing to thinking about tax theory and policy and I would like the opportunity to pass on what I have learned to the next generation of tax teachers and policymakers," Halperin said in a telephone interview this summer.
Halperin will be Harvard's first Stanley S. Surrey Professor of Law. He joins the faculty as a specialist in tax legislation, and pension and retirement benefits law.
Presently, Halperin is a George-town University Law Center professor.
He has also served on the faculty at the University of Pennsylvania Law School.
Halperin practiced with a New York City law firm for six years after earning a law degree from Harvard.
Halperin served two terms with the U.S. Treasury Department under the Johnson, Nixon and Carter Administrations.
