Virginia lawyer Robert C. Smith is the great-great-grandson of T.C. Williams, the name behind the University of Richmond’s T.C. Williams School of Law. Williams was a wealthy 19th-century businessman who owned tobacco companies, a graduate, and a trustee of the University of Richmond. Williams’ family donated $25,000 to fund the law school following his death.
