He has served as his state's United States Attorney and as the state Attorney General, as well as its top business regulator.

He has been a successful and unsuccessful political candidate, held several senior staff positions for a governor, run local referendum races, and been a longtime environmental advocate.

He has practiced law, tried cases to a jury, argued appeals (including in the United States Supreme Court), and litigated in federal and state administrative agencies. Sheldon grew up in a Foreign Service family and is author of Captured (The New Press). He lives in Newport with his wife, a marine scientist, and his grown children when they visit.visualizza meno
