USC law professor battles schizophrenia

g the schools most productive and respected scholarly writers.

Edward McCaffery, Robert C. Packard Trustee Chair in Law at USC, was one of the early colleagues Saks confided in.

Elyns contributions to the law school as a scholar, teacher, colleague, and now associate dean for research are extraordinary, McCaffery said. Shes an extremely competent person who knows how to deal with her illness. Theres nothing to do other than stand and applaud Elyn and to learn from her.

Saks was in her 40s before she was able to admit to herself that her illness was not going away, and that medication and psychoanalysis would be necessary for the rest of her life.

For 20 years I struggled with acceptance... Ironically, the more I accepted I had a mental illness, the less the illness defined me at which point the riptide set me free, said Saks.
