Growing up in the Cobbs Creek section of the city, Seth attended Friends’ Central and graduated from Central High in 1985. Elected President of the Student Government and the Black Caucus at Penn State University, He graduated in 1989. He was awarded his law degree, with distinction as a Public Interest Law Scholar, at the Georgetown University Law Center…
