The Heilbron Society and the Bar Society at Liverpool Law School invite you to this panel event with students, alumni and staff.
Hilary Heilbron KC will discuss her mother and Liverpool law graduate, Mrs Justice Heilbron.
Dame Rose Heilbron DBE QC (19th August 1914 – 8th December 2005) graduated from the University of Liverpool on three occasions with an LL.B. degree in 1935, an LL.M. degree in 1937, and an LL.D. in 1975.
Dame Rose was a trailblazer. She was, amongt other things, the first female recipient of a Gray’s Inn scholarship (1936), one of the first two female King’s Counsel (1949), the first female to lead in a murder trial, the first female judge when appointed Recorder of Burnley, the first female commissioner of assize (1957), the first female to sit as a judge at the Old Bailey (January 1972), the second female High Court judge (after Dame Elizabeth Lane), and the first female Treasurer of an Inn of Court.
Hilary Heilbron KC has written the definitive work on her mother and will introduce the book and its subject at the event. This will be followed by panel and audience discussion.
