Cave Creek Museum Presents: “Lady Law: The Extraordinary Lorna Lockwood” with Kraig Nelson March 8 @ 2:00 pm- 4:00 pm   The dean of the University of Arizona College of Law reportedly told Lorna that “law school is no place for a woman.”  Yet Lorna Lockwood became the second woman to attend an Arizona law school, the only woman in her law school class, the president of the student bar association and the first woman to graduate from law school in Arizona.  Ultimately, she became the first woman Justice of the Arizona Supreme Court, following in the footsteps of her father, the Honorable Alfred C Lockwood, who at one time taught at the Cave Creek School.  This program highlights one of Arizona’s most amazing notable women.

Presenter Kraig Nelson began as a docent at the Cave Creek Museum in 2008, became a regular columnist for the Museum’s newsletter in 2011 and the Museum Board elected him the Museum’s official historian in 2016.  Kraig also co-authored the Museum’s 2013 book, “Images of America-Cave Creek and Carefree”. Kraig is a regular columnist for “A Peak at the Peak” and North Valley Magazine.  He has been published in many other periodicals, including True West.     Admission is $10, including an all-day Museum pass.  (No discounts or Culture Passes will be honored.)  FREE for members; advance reservations are required.     Tickets are non-refundable, but may be used for Museum Admission or Event within 90 days of purchase by calling Staff
