Steven Fogel (1963-69)

The Road from Carmel

Joining Jill and Doron on our 21st episode, the third of our second season, to tell us his story, is Steven Fogel, a solicitor whose practice at the large international law firm, Dechert, which he led, focused on commercial property.

Steven attended Carmel from 1963 to ‘69, and then read law at King’s College in London. He wrote several textbooks and drafted legislation. He now acts as a board member, trustee or advisor of a museum and various groups dedicated to education, music and dance. He produces the occasional short film or story, and just published the extended essay “Carmel - the movie”, which can be found here: https://www.carmelcollege.co.uk/the-road-from-carmel-podcast.

Hear Steven talk about Sir Philip Green teaching him to guard his blancmange, a Purim skit gone awry, and what scent from Carmel days still evokes in him fear, loathing and respect.

Thank you, Steven Fogel, for turning us again to Carmel days!
