Roberta Walburn first encountered Judge Lord during her time as a reporter at the Star Tribune, but later eventually worked for him as a law clerk. She also recently wrote a book about his life and political influence titled "Miles Lord: The Maverick Judge Who Brought Corporate America to Justice."
Walburn joined MPR Reporter Euan Kerr for a conversation about the legacy Judge Lord left behind.
