Steven Brill (born August 22, 1950 in Queens, New York) is the founder of CourtTV and American Lawyer magazine. He also founded the failed Verified Identity Pass, Inc., the New York-based company that operated the Clear airport security fast-pass. The service abruptly shut down June 23, 2009, without any notice to the company's 260,000 paid customers. Brill is the creator of Brill's Content, a now-defunct magazine with a critical eye to the media. He also launched Contentville.com, which was to be a clearinghouse for the buying and selling of web text, news, and info of all sorts. The Contentville.com concept crashed with the dot-coms in 2001. For a time he was a columnist for Newsweek. His most recent venture is Journalism Online. He is the author of The Teamsters (1978) and After: How America Confronted the September 12th Era (2003).
