EXCLUSIVE: Harvard Law Prof Adds “Model” To His Resume

Noah Feldman, Harvard Law professor, has emerged from the Ivory Tower into the world of high fashion. This weekend’s WSJ., the magazine of the Wall Street Journal, features a photo, exclusively obtained by IvyGate, of Feldman posing in a blue blazer for “a fashion spread of men of note who modeled different versions of the iconic navy blazer,” we’re told. Well, the blue blazer IS an Ivy League staple, but the books scattered around Feldman (get it? He’s smart!) may be overkill. What say you, commenters? Hot or not?

Some context: Feldman is known for feuding with Lion Wieseltier, and clerked for David Souter; the New York Observer has said he’s one to watch for a future Supreme Court appointment. No word yet on whether this will hurt or help in the apocryphal future-Senate hearings. Either way, IvyGate heartily endorses fashion spreads starring professors (the full spread is online Friday, but doesn’t have any academics). Maybe we can get Ruth Simmons into Vogue one of these days…

    I also wasn’t aware that Senate hearings were inauthentic or downright fictitious, even given general sentiment about the “good faith” of our political leaders. Whatevs.
