The University of Dallas Board of Trustees has added another alumna to its ranks: Mary Devlin Capizzi, BA ’88 MBA ’89, a partner at Drinker, Biddle & Reath, LLP, a national, full-service law firm founded in Philadelphia in 1849. Capizzi started as a corporate transactional lawyer in the firm’s Chicago office, but had to pivot after her husband’s work required a move to Washington, D.C.  

“I fell into a D.C. practice that suits me well — while I occasionally use my corporate legal background, most of my work during the past 20-plus years has involved the representation of special purpose consortia comprised of industry competitors collaborating to address common concerns,” said Capizzi.
