Benjamin Spencer, dean of the William & Mary Law School and a U.S. Army Reserve captain, cooks dinner for his family of nine children at home in Williamsburg, Virginia, Dec. 3, 2020. Spencer does most of the cooking in the evening for his family even after a long day of work. Spencer is the first African-American dean hired by the oldest law school in the country and a U.S. Army Reserve officer and lawyer who works for the Government Appellate Division. Spencer graduated from Harvard Law School and joined the Army when he was almost 41 because he felt a calling to serve people and serve his nation. (U.S. Army Reserve photo by Master Sgt.
