Other Robert Shapiros
There is another Robert Shapiro, who is professor ermitus at NYU. He is involved with chemistry and exobiology. I wont write the article, because I have no idea about the style rules and because I am a poor writer, but would appriciate, if someone would do. Here are two links to start with: http://www.edge.org/3rd_culture/bios/shapiro.html http://chemistry.fas.nyu.edu/object/robertshapiro.html
 * I'd suggest at least creating a user account here and then writing something in your user area to start. Someone can proof-read and copyedit from there if you want. From the links you provided, I'm not even sure he's noteworthy enough - but I'm not an expert on such questions. --wknight94 20:55, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

There's also a Robert J. Shapiro, usually called just "Rob Shapiro," who was an impoirtant Clinton administration economist, and who since has made a reputation as an expert witness in some litigation involving securities fraud. http://www.ppionline.org/ppi_ci.cfm?contentid=253358&knlgAreaID=125&subsecid=163 --Christofurio 23:53, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
 * If he had an article, you could put a proper italicized "see also" link at the top. It's not customary to put a reference at the bottom of a bio page referring to someone who doesn't have an article - therefore, I'm going to revert the latest edit for now. If an article is created, feel free to put a notice up at the top. —Wknight94 (talk) 00:07, 13 March 2006 (UTC)


 * I created the article, and then the notice. --Christofurio 20:14, 14 March 2006 (UTC)


 * A disambiguation page may be in order; there are a number of links within Wikipedia to this page, expecting that the former Warner Brothers bigwig/artichoke Robert Shapiro is covered. Abb3w 13:46, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

PCO Inc. Case
I think saying Shapiro was exonerated might be misleading. I read the cited opinion and Christensen Miller's potential liability would have stemmed from Shapiro's actions. Shapiro may not have been personally liable, and that may be worth stating, but exonerated makes it sound like the court cleared Shapiro of all wrong-doing. Part of my hesitation in changing the section on my own is the link for the source used for the exoneration claim is broken.
