Barbara was the first woman and the first African American in the history of Maryland’s court system to hold positions of Deputy Administrator of the District Court, the Supreme Bench and the Circuit Court, eventually becoming a member of Maryland’s House of Delegates and the Maryland State Senate. She earned more than one-hundred awards including: the Women of Enterprise award, induction into Maryland’s Women Hall of Fame, the Key to the City in three states, being featured in the book, “Women of Achievement in Maryland’s History,” voted one of Maryland’s Top 100 Women, and honor at the White House delivered by President Clinton.
