Justice For All: The Legacy of Chief Justice Shirley S. Abrahamson

Now open!

The exhibit presents the groundbreaking career of Wisconsin’s first woman justice, her impact on the Wisconsin court system, and her place in history. It highlights causes she championed including women’s rights, civil rights, public understanding of the court system, and the importance of an independent judiciary. It presents these themes through archival photos, video clips, stories, and quotations. The exhibit links to a new, interactive learning tool called Tootsie the Goldfish, which is based on Abrahamson’s tutorial for helping people understand how judges decide cases. To her, nothing was more important than public confidence in the law and courts. Another link on the exhibit takes visitors to this website where they can explore a visual biography of Abrahamson from her birth to Polish, Jewish immigrants through her historic career on the Wisconsin Supreme Court, her most significant legal opinions, a timeline highlighting the trail she blazed for women lawyers and judges, and her quotable quotes.
