Reid, Harriett.
Harriett Reid, a lawyer in Springfield, Ill., from 1920 to 1937 served as an arbitrator on the Illinois Industrial Commission, a civil service position dealing with workmen's compensation cases. In 1920 the Illinois State Civil Service Commission had rerfused to hire Reid because she was a woman; her friend Catharine Waugh McCulloch helped her to fight the decision and win her appointment.
