Mr. Lawson
has not spent all his time over the past 20 years in the law
library or over a computer keyboard. The photos at the left and right show
him crossing the finish line
in the Cherry Blossom 10 Miler in Washington, D.C. and crossing San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge in the Presidio 10 Miler.
A former active tournament player, Mr.
Lawson's present schedule no longer allows him to play chess competitively, but he
maintains the popular Chesslinks Worldwide site.
