Catherine Smith joined the faculty at the University of Denver Sturm College of Law in 2004. She teaches torts, children and the law, and sexuality, gender and the law. She has published in legal journals, including Wisconsin Law Review, Washington University Law Review, and U.C. Davis Law Review. Smith’s research seeks to develop and expand children’s equal protection rights. Her co-authored amicus brief on children’s rights was cited and relied upon in the same-sex marriage decision, Obergefell v. Hodges. She recently completed a chapter (“concurring opinion”) for the forthcoming book, What Obergefell v. Hodges Should Have Said: The Nation’s Top Legal Experts Rewrite America’s Same-Sex Marriage Opinion (Jack M. Balkin, ed., Yale University Press, 2020). Smith is currently serving as an expert in Juliana v. United States, the landmark climate case brought by twenty-one young people suing the federal government for its role in the climate crisis.
