A Phi Beta Kappa graduate of the University of Michigan in psychology and history, Professor Levine also studied at University College, University of London on the London Exchange Fellowship, researching in the area of developmental psychology. He went on to graduate from the University of Pennsylvania Law School, where he was an editor of the law review and a legal writing instructor.
Before joining the Hastings faculty in 1982, Professor Levine lived in New Orleans while serving as a law clerk to Judge Alvin B.

He served as Associate Academic Dean from 1989-1991. He is co-author or co-editor of four books, including Remedies: Public and Private and California Civil Procedure, as well as the author of articles on civil procedure, torts and institutional reform litigation.
