Steve Crihfield—A Life in the Law

An opportunity to help share the story of how our own Steve Crihfield answered the call to the Bar and shaped our legal profession for more than half of the GBA’s history

As recently announced, longtime GBA member and past president Steve Crihfield is authoring a book about his nine decades of life, six decades of which have been spent in the practice of law in Guilford County. Author, editor, and journalist Margaret Moffett is working with Steve and is in the process of producing a workable manuscript for publication. Thanks to friends and colleagues who have already contributed to the significant costs and expenses to be undertaken in this endeavor.

Throughout his career, Steve strived to promote and improve the legal profession and our system of justice, as well as the quality of life of those who serve in it. His career has been a well-recognized and amply-regarded example of leadership, commitment, and integrity, with good humor and dedication to being a mentor and model as well. The GBA History and Archives Committee has endorsed the project, and is affording support and assistance accordingly. Steve’s story is one to be shared and spread, and equally reflects a story of our own Association and its members for well over the last half-century. As noted, those who contribute through their donations of $100.00 or more will be honored in recognition in the book’s acknowledgements, and checks may be written directly to Margaret Moffett (with “Crihfield book” indicated in the memo portion) and sent for receipt to our colleague and past GBA President Charles Younce at 4100 Well Spring Drive Unit 1301, Greensboro, NC 27410
