Jill Wine-Banks: The Watergate Girl

Jill Wine-Banks


The Watergate Girl: My Fight for Truth And Justice Against A Criminal President


Sponsored By Townsend Press/Judith Nadell - John Langan


In Conversation with Harvey N. Shapiro, Attorney, Partner at Hyland Levin Shapiro


Obstruction of justice, the specter of impeachment, sexism at work, and shocking revelations: Jill Wine-Banks takes us inside her trial by fire as a Watergate prosecutor. 


It was a time, much like today, when Americans feared for the future of their democracy, and women stood up for equal treatment. At the crossroads of the Watergate scandal and the women's movement was a young lawyer named Jill Wine Volner (as she was then known), barely thirty years old and the only woman on the team that prosecuted the highest-ranking White House officials. Called "the mini-skirted lawyer" by the press, she fought to receive the respect accorded her male counterparts and prevailed. At once a cautionary tale and an inspiration for those who believe in the power of justice and the rule of law, The Watergate Girl is a revelation about our country, our politics, and who we are as a society.
