This directory, prepared by the American Judicature Society and the National Association of Women Judges, provides the names and addresses of over 700 women lawyers serving as judges in the United States during the spring of 1980.
Abstract
Female judges serving in the Federal judiciary are presented first. Women appellate court judges, general trial court judges, and limited and special jurisdiction judges are listed for all 50 States and the District of Columbia. Each entry includes the name and professional address of the judge. Female quasi-judicial officers are also mentioned. The directory should facilitate the exchange of information among judges, serve as a valuable source of information for those interested in judicial improvement, and provide a list of contacts for newspaper reporters and community leaders seeking information from a woman judge's perspective.
