Pirsig, served as director of the Minnesota Legal Aid Society from 1925-1930. Age of 24-29. In the Minnesota Supreme Court Library Interview (on this site) he said"I saw how the legal system worked, and failed to work in many instances, and that led me to reflect on what is the function of the law, how does it work, what do we do about it when it doesn't work."
