The radio program was discontinued when a B-25 Mitchell crashed into the north side of the 79th floor of the building.

Clifford Alan Wolff was the namesake of his great-aunt, Claire Alice Wolff, who hosted a talk radio show in New York City from 1942 to 1945.

In 1946, Claire Wolff conceived the idea of the first interfaith postage stamp.

It was known as "The Four Chaplains" and commemorated the sacrifice of four clergymen in the United States Army who gave up their life preservers to other service men aboard the troop transport SS Dorchester.

The four clergy died so that other servicemen could live.

The United States Post Office approved the stamp in 1948 for general sale and circulation.

It was the first postage stamp ever issued by the Post Office commemorating a Jew, Rabbi Alexander Goode.

From this recognition, there now exists a stained glass window in the chapel of the Pentagon.

Clifford Wolff attended Nova Elementary School and Nova Middle School in Davie, Florida.

He went on to attend Coral Springs High School in Coral Springs, Florida.

While a high school student, Wolff was a member of the National Honor Society, Debate Team and Math Team.

United States Senator George S. LeMieux was a fellow debate team member at Coral Springs High School.

Clifford A. Wolff was born in New York City on April 7, 1970, the son of Judy Wolff and Malcolm Wolff.

Malcolm Wolff was a vice-president for CBS in New York City from 1980 to 1987.

After working in the corporate environment, Malcolm Wolff pursued the artistic path, attending the Florence Academy of Art in Italy.

Malcolm Wolff currently has several sculptures on permanent exhibition in Asheville, North Carolina, St. Augustine, Florida, and Las Vegas, Nevada as well as a private donation being held in the vaults of The Vatican, Italy.

Her radio show was recorded and broadcast from the 86th floor of the Empire State Building in the CBS Studios.

Wolff graduated in the top five percent of his high school class in 1988.

He then attended the University of Florida, in Gainesville, Florida, where he majored in English literature and mathematics at the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.

He was a member of Theta Chi Fraternity, was routinely appointed to the Dean's List for academic excellence, and was active in campus politics.

He graduated in 1992 as a University of Florida Presidential Scholar.

This award was presented to students graduating with excellent academic credentials and esteemed community service.

Wolff then attended the University of Florida Levin College of Law.

He was immediately recognized for his advocacy skills.

He was the only first-year law student in his class chosen for both the University of Florida Trial Team and the Justice Campbell Thornal Moot Court Board.

He earned the award of Champion Advocate at the 1995 Mock Trial Competition sponsored by the Association of Trial Lawyers of America in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Wolff also competed in appellate argument competitions in Chicago, New York City, and St. Louis.

He graduated from law school in 1995.

He was one of just two law students who received upon graduation election into the international advocacy honorary known as The Order of Barristers, signifying excellence in litigation skills.

Wolff was immediately admitted to the Florida Bar and went to work for Josephs, Jack and Gaebe, a litigation boutique in Miami, Florida.

He represented U-Haul International and its affiliates and was also involved in multimillion-dollar commercial litigation throughout Florida.

Wolff was subsequently courted by the white stocking law firm of Gunster Yoakley in Fort Lauderdale, Florida to handle complex commercial litigation matters.

Wolff was subsequently asked to join the law firm of Gordon, Hargrove and James in Fort Lauderdale, later known as the Sedgwick Law Firm.

He accepted the position and represented AT&T, BellSouth, Yahoo!, U-Haul, Carrier Corporation, Schindler Group, Otis Elevator Corporation, the UTC Companies and W.R. Grace and Company.

While at Gordon, Hargrove and James, Wolff filed a lawsuit on behalf of W.R. Grace and Company against the multi-billion dollar insurance company, American International Group (AIG), seeking reimbursement of hundreds of millions of dollars paid by W.R. Grace to resolve mass tort asbestos claims denied by AIG under an alleged fraud exclusion of various insurance policies.

Following depositions taken by Wolff of various executive vice-presidents and days before Wolff was scheduled to take the court-ordered deposition of AIG chairman Hank Goldberg, AIG capitulated and settled the lawsuit favorably to W.R. Grace.

After this success, Wolff was the youngest attorney ever made partner at the Sedgwick Law Firm.

Shortly after being elected a law partner, and at the request of several clients, Wolff started his own law firm, The Wolff Law Firm, in 2005.
