[3] A professor at Stetson University College of Law, Podgor was named the Gary R. Trombley Family White-Collar Crime Research Professor in 2011, has been quoted in The New York Times,[4][5] The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal and other publications on big news stories such as Bernie Madoff and Enron.
She has co-authored books and articles on white collar crime, criminal law and international criminal law, and in 2010 testified before the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Crime, Terrorism, and Homeland Security on the topic of overcriminalization.
She is the co-author with federal judge Paul D. Borman and Professors Peter Henning and Jerold Israel of the casebook White Collar Crime: Law and Practice.
[8] She and Professor Roger Clark, of Rutgers–Camden, led an effort to have the American Law Institute come out in opposition of the death penalty[9] That motion did not succeed, but led to discussion and debate that two years later, resulted in the organization dropping mention of the death penalty from its Model Penal Code.
Under Podgor's leadership, Stetson and NACDL have created the White Collar Criminal Defense College,[11] which they bill as a boot-camp for defense attorneys to better hone their advocacy skills.
