Fisher III is the WilmerHale Professor of Intellectual Property Law at Harvard Law School and faculty director of the Berkman Center for Internet and Society. His primary research and teaching areas are intellectual property law[1] and legal history. In his book Promises to Keep: Technology, Law and the Future of Entertainment (Stanford University Press 2004), Fisher proposes replacing much of copyright and digital rights management with a government-administered reward system. Under such a scheme, movies and songs would be legal to download. Authors and artists would receive compensation from the government based on how often their works were read, watched, or listened to. The system would be funded by taxes. Fisher is one of the founders of Noank Media, a private enterprise similar in many ways to the proposal of Promises to Keep. Noank licenses and distributes digital content by collecting blanket-license revenues from internet services providers and distributing revenues to authors and artists based on the size of their audience.[2] Fisher was among the lawyers, along with his colleague John Palfrey and the law firm of Jones Day, who represented Shepard Fairey, pro bono, in his lawsuit against the Associated Press related to the iconic Hope poster.[3] An alumnus of Amherst College, Fisher received a law degree and a Ph.D. in the history of American civilization from Harvard University. He was a law clerk to U.S. Supreme Court justice Thurgood Marshall.[4] Fisher is currently teaching an online course on copyright law, based on the same course that he teaches at Harvard Law School. The online course, HLS1x (also referred to as CopyrightX), was offered during Spring 2013 on the EdX platform.[5] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.thecrimson.com/article/2000/8/4/website-university-exchange-lawsuits-pa-trademark/|title=Website, University Exchange Lawsuits|last=DeBartolo|first=David M|date=4 August 2000|work=The Harvard Crimson|accessdate=21 September 2010}} 2. ^Noank Media web site.
