: Ms. JDCatherine Murdock Dewey, One of the First Female Lawyers in Boston, Turns 100
By Anonymous
Catherine Murdock Dewey, one of the first female lawyers in Boston, is celebrating her 100th birthday. She will be honored by the New England School of Law, in Boston, where retired U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, the first woman on the Supreme Court, will be present the keynote address.
Dewey and two of her female law school "chums" opened their own firm, Curry, Mowler and Murdock, in 1933. They wanted to try cases instead of being relegated to legal secretary or "confidential" law firm positions.
