Long before “first woman” headlines became familiar, Florence Allen was breaking barriers no one had broken before her. She was the first woman on a state Supreme Court. The first woman on a federal appellate court. And a 12-time U.S. Supreme Court shortlist finalist across four presidential administrations who never got the nod. In this episode, Professor Tracy Thomas, Director of the Center for Constitutional Law at the University of Akron School of Law discusses her new book, The First Woman Judge: The Life and Legacy of Florence Allen(University of California Press, September 2026).
