Early life


Joseph Tyree Sneed III was born on July 21, 1920 in Calvert, Texas.[2][3] He was the son of Cara Carlton (Weber) and Harold Marvin Sneed, a rancher and landowner.[2][4][5] He spent his youth working summers as a cowboy on his uncle's ranch in the Texas Panhandle.[3]


Sneed received his Bachelor of Business Administration degree from Southwestern University in 1941.[2] He served as a Staff Sergeant in the Army Air Corps during World War II.[2] Sneed attended the University of Texas School of Law, where he received his Bachelor of Laws, Order of the Coif in 1947.[2][3] He was also a visiting student at the London School of Economics and the University of Ghana.[3] He subsequently received a Doctor of Juridical Science from Harvard Law School in 1958.[2]



Career

Sneed was an assistant professor of law at the University of Texas School of Law from 1947 to 1951.[2] He became an associate professor in 1951 and was made a full professor in 1954. He taught at the University of Texas until 1957.[2]


Sneed was a professor of law at Cornell Law School from 1957 to 1962, followed by the Stanford Law School from 1962 to 1971.[2] He was professor of law and dean of the Duke University School of Law from 1971 to 1973.[2][3]

He served as an active judge of the court until taking senior status on July 21, 1987.
