Hot In Hartford: Dan Schwartz vs. John Dankosky


We reach the halfway marker of Hot In Hartford with a match up of intellect far beyond Sad City's capacity. Daniel Schwartz is a well respected attorney at Pullman & Comley, working cases in employment law, commercial litigation, and trade secret enforcement. Mr. Schwartz has been named in the "40 Under 40" by the Hartford Business Journal (July 2010) and has been named as a top lawyer by numerous publications. Mr. Schwartz is also the author of the Connecticut Employment Law Blog, one of the most widely read blogs of its kind and has been named as a Top 100 Blog produced by lawyers for three consecutive years.


John Dankosky also has a blog "Where We Blog" but is better know for his "Where We Live" radio show on WNPR. Where We Live always provides interesting takes on local news and recently made state wide news by having Governor Dan Malloy in studio for an hour where the Governor answered questions about responses to Hurricane Irene and Snowtober, CL&P, and the XL Center. We recently ran into "Where We Live" producer Tucker Ives at a CT Whale game, and while all agreed that Hot In Hartford was silly, we also agreed that since we regularly spend our weekends at minor league hockey games, we don't have anything better to do and got word that the "Where We Live" camp is looking to best their NPR rivals.

    1. Why not?
      Is he leprotic?
      I hope not. That would be bad.

  6. I have to go with Dan here.
    I mean is it just me or is there something sinister to the other fellow's looks? Wow. Last time I saw someone who looked like that was in a video of a Navy SEAL Team kicking down his door and tossing in flashbangs.
    I have to go with Dan.
    He has a face you can trust!
