She represented Daniel J. Bernstein and the Electronic Frontier Foundation in Bernstein v. United States. In 1997 she was recognized by California Lawyer Magazine as one of the Lawyers of the Year for this work. After serving for 15 years as Legal Director and General Counsel[1] for the Electronic Frontier Foundation, she became its Executive Director in 2015.[2] In 2006, Ms. Cohn was named one of the 100 most influential lawyers in America by the National Law Journal. In November 2018, she was featured among "America's Top 50 Women In Tech" by Forbes.[3] Ms. Cohn also serves on the Board of Directors of the nonprofits Human Rights Advocates and the Verified Voting Foundation. Cohn studied law at the University of Michigan. She received her undergraduate degree at the University of Iowa and the London School of Economics. In addition to Bernstein, some of Ms. Cohn's significant cases include Hepting v.
