Originally from Los Angeles, Hessler received his J.D. from Yale Law School and served as a law clerk to Judge J. Skelly Wright on United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. Hessler worked briefly as a foreign correspondent for Newsweek. He also earned degrees from Harvard College (BA) and the University of California, Berkeley (MA).
