Shirley A. Siegel, who as a top law school graduate overcame rejections by 40 male-dominated law firms before forging a career as a leading civil rights lawyer, arguing cases before the Supreme Court and becoming New York State’s first female solicitor general, died on Monday at her home in Manhattan. She was 101.
Her daughter, Ann B. Siegel, said the cause was complications of a stroke suffered a few weeks ago.
Ms. Siegel found her calling in life early, deciding at age 5 that she would become a lawyer before she even knew what a lawyer was. But once she started practicing law, she kept at it for more than 70 years, compiling a long list of achievements, notably in challenging racial discrimination by construction unions, landlords and developers.
Ms. Siegel organized New York State’s newly created Civil Rights Bureau in 1959 under the newly elected State Attorney General Louis J. Lefkowitz (a Republican who selected her even though she was a Democrat). She served under Mayor John V. Lindsay of New York as general counsel of the Housing and Development Administration, where she helped draft the Rent Stabilization Law. And she returned to Albany in 1979 when Attorney General Robert Abrams named her solicitor general, the official responsible for rendering opinions and arguing appeals of court decisions involving the state. She remained in that post until 1982.
Ms. Siegel regarded as one of her greatest accomplishments the blow she made in the Civil Rights Bureau against discrimination by organized labor in the building trades. Until then an applicant for union membership first had to have worked as an apprentice, a position typically granted on the basis of nepotism.
Investigations by the attorney general’s office culminated in an official complaint before the State Commission Against Discrimination, leading the United States Justice Department and other agencies to begin inquiries into the practices of a number of unions.
In 1975, for example, a federal judge ordered Local 28 of the 4,000-member Sheet Metal Workers International Association to end “a history of discrimination” and admit more minority-group members into its ranks and its apprentice program.

As a state official, Ms. Siegel sought to carry out the Supreme Court’s guarantee that poor people were entitled to legal representation, and she found that insurance companies and banks had favored job applicants who were white, Christian and male — a determination that compelled them to begin opening up their hiring practices.
As a volunteer lawyer for the New York Civil Liberties Union, Ms. Siegel drafted a brief supporting Japanese-Americans who, in a case before the United States Supreme Court, were challenging their internment at the outbreak of World War II.
Ms. Siegel argued cases before the Supreme Court twice, both times successfully. In the first, in 1963, she defended New York’s anti-discrimination law in case involving a black pilot’s suit against a national airline. In the second case, in 1980, the justices upheld a law for which she had argued that authorized the use of state funds to reimburse nonpublic schools for state-required services like testing and recording attendance.
Ms. Siegal had been no stranger to discrimination herself, on two fronts. After graduating fourth in a class of 125 from Yale Law School in 1941 — her classmates included a future president, Gerald R. Ford; a future Supreme Court justice, Potter Stewart; and the future founding director of the Peace Corps, R. Sargent Shriver — 40 law firms rejected her job application, despite an unsolicited endorsement from Arthur L. Corbin, a Yale professor.
“Anyone who employs her in legal work will have reason to be thankful to us,” Professor Corbin wrote. “And she needs help to get a starting job, first because she is a girl, and second because she is Jewish. There is no reason for the slightest hesitation on either ground.”
She was finally hired, by Proskauer, Rose & Paskus, a largely Jewish firm, becoming its first female lawyer.
But those 40 cold shoulders had been nothing new to Ms. Siegel. She had entered Yale Law School in 1938 as the only woman in her class.
“I came to my first class and nobody would sit next to me,” she said.
Shirley Adelson was born on July 3, 1918, in the South Bronx to Jewish immigrants from Lithuania. Her father, Henry, owned a clothing store. Her mother, Rose (Zagor) Adelson, worked as a seamstress but mostly as a homemaker.
The family left to live in Trenton, N.J., when Shirley was an infant, then boarded a Pennsylvania Railroad train and moved to Manhattan when she was 5. On that train ride north, she recalled, she got to talking to a stranger seated next to her.
“When I got back to the city with the family, what they talked about the rest of that day was that I had spoken to this stranger for the whole two hours, and they said, ‘She is such a chatterbox, she should be a lawyer,” Ms. Siegel told the American Bar Association’s Commission on Women in the Profession in 2006.
“Well, I then entered kindergarten, and the teacher asked us what we wanted to be,” she added. “I said that day in kindergarten that I wanted to be a lawyer, without knowing any lawyers and having absolutely no idea what this was all about.”
Her response distinguished her in elementary school as “the girl who wanted to be a lawyer.”
“So this was a very odd way to choose a career,” she said.
Ms. Siegel was a month shy of her 15th birthday when she graduated from George Washington High School in Upper Manhattan as class valedictorian. Shen then enrolled at Barnard College, where she became an acolyte of Raymond Moley, the Columbia University professor and New Deal adviser to President Franklin D. Roosevelt.
A part-time job with a New Deal program, the New York Legislative Service, led to a lifetime commitment, both in government and as a public-interest lawyer, to fighting discrimination by landlords and developers.
After earning her degree in government at Barnard, Ms. Siegel won a fellowship to the London School of Economics, where she was mentored by Harold J. Laski, the English political theorist and Labor Party chairman. It was he who recommended that she apply to Yale Law School. (He lent her the $50 application fee, which she repaid.)

Re: Obituaries - Gone but not forgotten.
Pat Stark, anyone who follows Syracuse football or the University of Rochester might remember the name. Starting QB and All America in the 50’s at SU. After his senior year he was drafted by the Steelers in the second round but chose to enlist in the Army instead. Went on to coach at SU and other stops before ending up at the University of Rochester.
My daughter came to know him very well as he hired her photography business and through the work she did at UofR athletic events. She is really saddened by his loss.

Saw him play at MSG in 1980 during a charity drive - a great show. One of the highlights was when we booed Zsa Zsa Gabor off the stage - I was the first one to boo her and the crowd follow me.
Charlie started out in life as a liberal but turned rightie when it became more profitable to become one. Sang about the Devil went down to Georgia about selling one's soul to him. That's what he did when he turned rightie.

Herman Cain dies of Covid:
https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2020/7 ... m-COVID-19
Former Republican presidential contender Herman Cain has died due to COVID-19. Cain was hospitalized on July 2 for COVID-19 symptoms; his last apparent public appearance was at Donald Trump’s Tulsa, Oklahoma rally two weeks prior, on June 20. That event was intentionally structured to ignore pandemic safety recommendations, and Tulsa, Oklahoma saw a spike of COVID-19 cases in the weeks afterwards that public health experts believe was connected to Trump’s appearance.
Cain was a fierce public critic of mandatory mask efforts. The day before his hospitalization, he had praise for Trump’s no-mask policy a Mt. Rushmore event, declaring in a now-deleted tweet that “PEOPLE ARE FED UP!”
It is a tragedy when anyone dies from this crisis. Cain, however, seems to have put himself into it deliberately.
Says one commentator:
Herman Caín thought Covid was a hoax, scoffed at wearing a mask. Died of Covid.
Bill Montgomery, co-founder of pro-Trump, Turning Point USA, scoffed at virus. Died of Covid.
Rep. Gohmert refused to wear a mask. Has Covid.
See a pattern?
Covid doesn’t care about partisanship.
https://twitter.com/ananavarro/status/1 ... 3690599424
Let us hope this needless tragedy will spur Republicans to set aside their partisanship and learn to work with Democrats and others to find a solution to the plague.
