Grace H. Harte
Chicago attorney Grace H. Harte was admitted to the Illinois bar in 1912. In general practice, she specialized in real estate law. GHH was a member of the Women Lawyers' Association (WLA), the Lawyers' Association of Illinois, and president of the Women's Bar Association of Illinois (WBAL). In the 1930s and 40s, GHH wrote articles for the WLA publication, the Women Lawyers' Journal. She was active in the WBAL's successful 1930s campaign to make mandatory the inclusion of women on juries. GHH apparently had a special interest in preserving and writing the history of women lawyers, perhaps in the hope of encouraging more women to become lawyers.
