Lucy Lang
Lucy Lang (born March 13, 1981) is an American attorney, author, and the 11th Inspector General of New York.
Born in New York City, Lang is the daughter of Kristina Lang (née Watson) and American actor Stephen Lang, and the granddaughter of Theresa Lang (née Volmer) and education reformer Eugene M. Lang, who founded the I Have A Dream Foundation. She has one sister, artist Grace, and two brothers, Daniel and Noah, both filmmakers.
Lang graduated with high honors from Swarthmore College in 2003 with a degree in political science and history and a concentration in interpretation theory. She earned her Juris Doctor (J.D.) from the Columbia University School of Law in 2006.
Since 2009, Lang has been in a relationship with Scott Asher.[citation needed] They reside in Harlem with their son and daughter.[citation needed]
In 2006, Lang began her career as an Assistant DA in Manhattan under District Attorney Robert M. Morgenthau, first in the Appeals Bureau and later in the Trial Division. Under DA Cyrus R. Vance, Jr., she served as Special Counsel to the District Attorney as well as executive director of the in-house think tank, the Manhattan D.A. Academy, which expanded legal training for prosecutors and developed prosecutorial reform policy. There she created a program called Inside Criminal Justice, a first-of-its kind college class for prosecutors and incarcerated students to study criminal justice together inside of a prison.
Lang became the executive director of the Institute for Innovation in Prosecution in 2018, working with prosecutors and communities to promote safety, fairness, and dignity in the criminal legal system. Under her leadership, the Institute for Innovation in Prosecution has advocated for criminal justice reforms and focused on reducing police involved shootings and fatalities, creating national prosecutorial guidelines to increase accountability and calling for increased support for victims of police violence .
In August 2020, Lang began her campaign for Manhattan District Attorney, citing the impact of the coronavirus in New York and protests against police brutality sparked by the murder of George Floyd as motivating factors in her decision to enter the race. Lang conceded the race on June 23, 2021. Alvin Bragg was declared the winner on July 20, 2021.
On October 21, 2021, Lang was appointed as the 11th Inspector General of the State of New York of New York State by Governor Kathleen Hochul and remains in that office to date.
