AMERICAN
CANCER
SOCIETY'

States Supreme Court opinion in
the case ofBradwell v. Illinois. It
was the first time I had ever
heard of either the citation or the
opinion, so I guess I was lucky to
have a legal historian for a col-
league.
"From that day on, I incorpo-
rated into my class handouts the
infamous opinion of Supreme
Court Justice Bradley that a
woman would never have a ca-
reer separate and distinct from
her husband," continued Fried-
man.
"It was an eye opener for every-
body. Even when I stopped teach-
ing constitutional law in the early
1980s and began teaching health
law, my fascination with Brad-
well continued to grow. Myra
Bradwell had lost on the Illinois
Supreme Court level twice and
then gone on to the U.S. Supreme
Court, where she was told in ef-
fect to go back to the kitchen and
help her mate. So I wondered
what had happened to her, if giv-
ing up her career was indeed
what she had done."
In her spare time, Friedman
started researching Bradwell in
law libraries and through the Li-
brary of Congress. From what she
could find, Bradwell was an in-
visible woman, and she began to
wonder if perhaps Justice
Bradley had legally sealed her
fate.
It was then that Friedman
found a biographical listing which
not only detailed Bradwell's work
during the Civil War on behalf of
women's causes, but told of her
editorship of the Chicago Legal
News.
Some years later, while brows-
ing in the U-M law library, Fried-
man came across a complete set
of the Chicago Legal News. "I
opened a volume and read
through a small part of it, and
what I found there was amazing,"
says Friedman.
Then Friedman found anoth-
er clue in the Bradwell puzzle
through a citation in a reference
book stating that Bradwell was
essentially practicing law with-
out a license. When Bradwell fi-
nally was granted a license in
1890, it was backdated to the
time of her original application
in 1869, thus making her the first
woman lawyer in not only Illinois
but in the entire United States.
But by then it was a moot point.
Bradwell was already terminal-
ly ill with the cancer that would
claim her life in 1894.
It was while delving into that
first volume of the Chicago Legal
News that Friedman discovered
Bradwell's anti-Semitism. "In
those days," explains Friedman,
"anti-Semitism was the in-thing
among lawyers. The entire legal
profession was notoriously anti-
Semitic at that time.
"Bradwell never said Jewish
attorneys should be denied the
right to practice, but she fre-
quently said she had little use for

lawyers of the Hebrew faith.
"Our idols always have feet of
clay," says Friedman.
Through Friedman's book,
Mary Todd Lincoln becomes even
more of a tragic figure in Ameri-
can history, rescued from the asy-
lum when Bradwell came to her
aid. Although denied the right to
practice law by both the Illinois
and United States Supreme
Court, Bradwell was able to best
Robert Todd Lincoln, no small
feat given his wealth and power.
Friedman's diligence and
lawyer-like devotion to rooting
out the truth has not gone unno-
ticed by her peers. An article by
a feminist activist on the Op-Ed
page of the Detroit News said
women who want to write Amer-
ican history should thank Fried-
man and take lessons from her.
That's a view shared by former
National Organization of Women
(NOW) executive director Karen
DeCrow (nee Lipschultz), who in
a November 1993 Miami Herald
review of Friedman's book, ad-
vised readers that if they were to
read only one history book that
year, it should be Friedman's.
In a telephone interview from
her Jamesville, N.Y., home, De-
Crow credited Friedman's biog-
raphy with putting Bradwell
firmly on the women's history
map.

Her license was
backdated 21 years.

"It is a wonderful thing that
she did it," said DeCrow, "but the
important thing about Fried-
man's book is not to establish
whether or not Myra Bradwell
was America's first woman
lawyer, but to document the in-
credible legal discrimination that
existed against women. Many
women lawyers, and women com-
prise more than half of the class-
es in law schools today, just do
not realize how good our luck is.
Friedman's book is important for
that reason, as a major contribu-
tion to feminist scholarship. And
it also details the big fight over
tactics in the women's movement
with Susan B. Anthony on one
hand and moderates like Brad-
well on the other. It is a strug-
gle that still has its parallels
today."
DeCrow, who is also a lawyer
and briefly touched upon Brad-
well's career in her own seminal
Sexist Justice, says she wasn't
surprised by Bradwell's "virulent"
anti-Semitism. "Virtually all of
the leaders of the women's move-
ment were elitists and could not
see why working men laboring in
factories, much less blacks, were
given voting rights that women
could not have," says DeCrow.
"Certainly the more radical
feminists of her time did not look
upon Myra Bradwell with great
favor, and it appears to have been
