      abstract = {Woman Lawyer tells the story of Clara Foltz, the first  woman admitted to the California Bar. Famous in her time as  a public intellectual, leader of the women's movement, and  legal reformer, Foltz faced terrific prejudice and  well-organized opposition to women lawyers as she tried  cases in front of all-male juries, raised five children as  a single mother, and stumped for political candidates. She  was the first to propose the creation of a public defender  to balance the public prosecutor. Woman Lawyer uncovers the  legal reforms and societal contributions of a woman  celebrated in her day.},
