Richard A. Feinstein

Richard Feinstein is a partner in the Washington, DC office of Boies, Schiller & Flexner, LLP. He has practiced antitrust law—in both the government and private practice—in Washington since 1977. He returned to his current firm in December of 2013 following four years as the Director of the Bureau of Competition at the Federal Trade Commission.

Rich has been a subscriber to and supporter of Arena Stage since moving to Washington in 1977. His lifelong fondness for theatre and film may stem in part from his father’s work in the movie theatre business. Over the years, his other outside activities and interests have included: the Yale Alumni Schools Committee, the Yale Alumni Fund, the All Saints All Day Child Care Center (now known as Wonders, where he served as both a Director and President of the Board), A Wider Circle (volunteer and advisor), the Howard University School of Law Moot Court Team (advisor) and coaching youth sports. He is also an avid long distance runner and a passionate fan of Pittsburgh sports.

Rich graduated from Yale University with a B.A. in American Studies in 1974, and received a J.D. from Boston College Law School in 1977. He lives in Chevy Chase with his wife Pam (a volunteer and board member at A Wider Circle) and a Dalmatian named Bucco (see Pittsburgh sports above). Their sons, Paul and David—also theatre, movie and Pittsburgh sports fans—live and work in Washington.
