The National LGBT Bar Association, a national association of lawyers, judges, law students, activists, and legal organizations, is hosting it's annual Lavender Law conference in San Francisco, CA, at the Marriott Marquis Hotel on August 22-24, 2013.

Other panelists include Jennifer Pizer, Director of Lambda Legal's Law & Policy Project; Shannon Minter, the Legal Director of the National Center for Lesbian Rights; and Prof. William Eskridge of Yale Law School.
