by Mary Alice McLarty (Author)
From her early days as a girl from the Panhandle of Texas, Mary Alice McLarty was deeply troubled when people were judged by the color of their skin rather than the content of their character. When Mary Alice attended a trial in high school, she was filled with indignation when a white man who shot a black man in the back was given just two years in prison. She stood up in the courtroom and proclaimed, "Well, I guess it is okay to kill a black man in Dalhart, Texas." The judge slammed his gavel and said, "Shut up and sit down, young lady, or I'll have you thrown in jail!" She did shut up and sit down, but that wasn't the last time in her life a judge said that to her. That day, a spark of justice was ignited in her that has burned brightly for over 50 years. Mary Alice carved out a distinguished career as a champion of the underdog, a personal injury attorney committed to helping the little guy stand up against insurance companies and mega-corporations. Mary Alice became a warrior for justice.
