From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bruce B. Zager (born December 11, 1952) is a former justice of the Iowa Supreme Court. Born and raised in Waterloo, Iowa, Zager graduated from the University of Iowa in 1975, from Loyola University, Chicago, Illinois in 1977 (MSIR), and from Drake University Law School in 1980.[1] He was appointed to the Iowa District Courts in 1999.

Zager was one of three justices appointed by Governor Terry Branstad in 2011. In November 2010, Iowa voters had removed all three justices seeking reelection in response to the court unanimously legalizing same-sex marriage in Varnum v. Brien.[2] Zager retired from the court on September 3, 2018.[3]
