Doron Levine is a Staff Attorney at the ACLU of Alaska focusing on prisons and criminal justice reform. He joined the ACLU in January 2025. His work aims to improve Alaska's criminal legal system through education, litigation, and public advocacy.
Doron grew up in New Jersey. He studied philosophy and mathematics at Yeshiva University and graduated from Harvard Law School in 2020. He moved to Alaska that summer to clerk for Judge Andrew Kleinfeld of the federal Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. After clerking, he became a trial attorney at the Palmer office of the Alaska Public Defender Agency.
As a public defender, Doron represented people accused of misdemeanor and felony crimes. He also defended incarcerated children in juvenile delinquency cases and patients in civil commitment hearings at Mat-Su Regional Hospital. These experiences motivated Doron to advocate for structural change in our approach to criminal justice.
Doron is lucky to live in the magnificent Mat-Su Valley. He enjoys floating the local rivers and lakes, exploring the ocean coast, snow machining, biking, meandering, and listening to good music in beautiful places.
