There are a number of good biographies of judges, but very few of individual legal academics; indeed, so far as American legal academics are concerned, the only one of note that comes to mind is William Twining's life of Karl Llewellyn. Llewellyn was, of course, a major figure in the evolution of American law, and his unusual life was a further advantage for his biographer. In this biography, Nicola Lace has taken as her subject an English academic who also had an unusual career, one whose contribution was principally not to the evolution of the English legal system but to …
Michigan's First Woman Lawyer: Sarah Killgore Wertman, Margaret A. Leary
Michigan's First Woman Lawyer: Sarah Killgore Wertman, Margaret A. Leary
Articles
Sarah Killgore Wertman was the first woman in the country to both graduate from law school and be admitted to the bar.

Dick Wellman -- A Personal Remembrance, Lawrence W. Waggoner
Articles
Dick Wellman was my teacher, mentor, collaborator, colleague, and friend. My law school class at The University of Michigan Law School voted Dick the most enthusiastic member of the faculty, and he was that.
