Houston speaks at prestigious law event
A chance meeting on an airplane with one of the nation's most prominent lawyers recently led to a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Lamarr Houston.
On a flight with New York-based attorney William C. Burton, the Bears outside linebacker mentioned that he hopes to attend law school after his playing career ends. Burton, the founder and chairman of a national awards program that was established in 1999 to reward great achievements in law, invited Houston to speak at the prestigious 18th annual Burton Awards May 22 at the Library of Congress in Washington.
