is Friday, March 13, 2020 | 5:30 Social, 7:00 Dinner at the Portland Art Museum, 1219 SW Park Ave., Portland

2020 Award Recipients:
Gina Johnnie, Sherman Sherman Johnnie & Hoyt, Salem
&
Doug Park, Deputy General Counsel, University of Oregon
About the award:
Justice Betty Roberts (1923-2011) was a leader in Oregon politics, the first woman appointed to the Oregon appellate bench, and a beloved mentor and advocate for women lawyers.
Judge Mercedes Deiz (1917-2005) was a trailblazer in the Oregon Bar as the first black woman to practice law in Oregon and the first woman of color on the Oregon bench. She overcame racial bias throughout her career, and created opportunities for those that might otherwise be marginalized by society, to access legal resources and careers.
The OWLS Roberts & Deiz Award honors the legacies of both Justice Roberts and Judge Deiz as promoters of those from non-dominant cultures (e.g. women, people of color, LGBTQ, and those with disabilities).
