David Currie was a professor at Chicago Law School. His death at the age of 71 is reported by the WSJ Law Blog, which has links to other obituaries.
He studied German as an undergraduate, was a visiting professor at some German universities, and wrote about the German constitution in English and the US constitution in German (seems to be out of print, but the ISBN is 3 7875 5352 5 – I see amazon.de has an interesting page ISBN-Suche giving the option of searching for an ISDN in various catalogues).
