"It was traumatic because we were all working under a cloud," Brody said. "There were constant revelations and you never knew what was go- ing to happen next." Ironically, one of August's first big cases was represen- ting Adat Shalom when it fil- ed for bankruptcy. Brody arrived at bankrupt- cy court through an unlikely route. After graduating from City College of New York, he held various odd jobs, in- cluding working as a prison guard at a federal minimum penitentiary in Pennsylvania. Brody had been promised a job as the prison's athletic director, but it never materialized. In 1942, Brody moved to Detroit to take an executive training course at Chrysler Corp. He later enrolled at the University of Michigan Law School where he received a scholarship. In 1947, Brody graduated from U-M and taught law at the University of Toledo. He also moonlighted as the school's freshman basketball coach. Brody points out with delight that his team won their league championship under his leadership. Brody later worked as a staff attorney at the Office of Price Stabilization in Washington, D.C. He also did brief stints with law firms in New York and California. He returned to Michigan in 1957 to serve as a law clerk to U.S. District Court Judge Theodore Levin. Brody had gone to law school with Levin's son, Charles, who is now a justice of the Michigan Supreme Court. Two years later, there was an opening for a bankruptcy referee in the Eastern District and the elder Levin recommended Brody for the position. The position of bankruptcy referee was elevated to a judgeship in 1973. As a judge, Brody showed little patience for attorneys appearing before him who were not well versed in bankruptcy law. It wasn't unusual for Brody to chastise attorneys before their col- leagues and clients. Many bankruptcy lawyers readily admitted they were terrorized by the judge's presence. "The first time I appeared before Judge Brody, I literal- ly didn't say a word," Ruskin recalled. "The court stenographer came up to me later to ask my name. There was nothing on the court record to indicate I was even there?' Brody, a member of the Na- Judge Brody: He brought credibility to the courtroom. tional Bankruptcy Con- ference, has published books and articles on bankruptcy law and is known nationally as one of the leading experts in his field. "The opinions Judge Brody wrote have widespread accep- tance," said Clive W. Bare, a Knoxville, Milli. attorney and former bankruptcy court judge. "He has written many lucid and clear opinions and is recognized as one of the outstanding judges in the country." Brody, who never married, intends to remain active. He has agreed to sit as a visiting judge in various bankruptcy courts around the country. He also plans to explore various interests, including Judaism. "I've lived alone all my life in many different cities and couldn't get involved in Jewish activities," Brody said. "I want to become more aware and knowledgeable about Judaism." ■ •"1"1 IN BRIEF ARNOLD -MIKELBERG has joined Thorn Apple Valley, Inc. as executive vice president of operations.
