Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very good. First edition. First printing [stated]. Sewn binding. Cloth over boards. xxvi, 293, [1] p. Illustrations. Index. This is a Lisa Drew Book. Notes. Nice inscription from author on t-p. DJ has slight wear and soiling. Foreword by Associate Justice, United States Supreme Court, Stephen G. Breyer. From Wikipedia: "Judith Richards Hope (born November 1940) is a lawyer, law professor, and corporate director. She graduated magna cum laude from Wellesley College and received her law degree from Harvard University, where she was one of the fifteen female students to graduate in 1964. Hope later wrote a book about her time at Harvard Law School called Pinstripes & Pearls: The Women of the Harvard Law Class of '64 Who Forged an Old Girl Network and Paved the Way for Future Generations. Hope served as vice chair of the President's Commission on Organized Crime under President Ronald Reagan, her tenure spanning years in which federal prosecution of organized crime made some of its greatest strides in American history. In April 1988, President Reagan nominated Hope to the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. Hope's nomination fell victim to election-year stalling." To illustrate the challenges facing women of her generation, author Judith Richards Hope describes the lives and careers of a handful of barrier-breaking women, including herself, from Harvard Law School's pivotal class of 1964, who fought and overcame preconceptions and prejudices against their entering what, at the time, was a male vocation. Despite their struggles in law school and in the workplace, they maintained their ambition and ultimately achieved remarkable success. They look back on law school as a time of enormous personal and intellectual growth. In 1961, before modern civil rights legislation and women's liberation, women were generally regarded as undesirable candidates for law studies. Most law firms believed that women couldn't keep up the pace, that they couldn't avoid emotional outbursts, and that their place was in the home. Nonetheless, 48 women applied to Harvard Law that year, 22 were accepted, and 15 graduated in a class of 513. The rigorous training at Harvard Law taught these women to survive and to thrive in one of the toughest, most competitive professions in the country. It took grit, confidence, resourcefulness, thick skins, and a certain irreverence for them to succeed. These qualities propelled Judith Richards Hope and her classmates into some of the most prominent careers of their generation, yet they did not sacrifice their more traditional female roles. Their achievements have helped pave the way for women of subsequent generations. Pinstripes and Pearls illuminates the extraordinary trajectories of these women -- among them Pat Schroeder, Judith W. Rogers, and Hope herself -- who forged an old-girl network and became lifelong friends. Through compelling and often witty anecdotes, unprecedented archival research of Harvard records, and revealing testaments to the difficulties faced by women harboring serious career goals, Pinstripes & Pearls personifies in these women the emergence of a new type of American female, one whose "goal is to reach the destination, not just to avoid humiliation on the way." Derived from a Kirkus review: There were only 15 women in the class, but a good number of them rose to positions of authority and notice, Pat Schroeder and Judith Wilson Rogers among them. Hope hopes to explain just how the actions of these woman "paved the way for future generations". Hope proceeds by way of a linear historical narrative. To her, however, the women's contributions seem less important than the fact that they got to sit "at the table" with the men. There are few glimpses of just how these women responded to the world. Most powerful is Hope's admission that she blew it as a mother: Give her honesty a round of applause.…
