EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the young and determined expression of Yvonne Stranger, the youngest woman barrister in the UK at just 21 years old, as she sits confidently in a wooden chair, dressed in a stylish yet professional attire of the 1930s. The square neckline and puffed sleeves of her dress, accessorized with a delicate fan, add an elegant touch to her outfit. The photograph, taken in 1933, was a groundbreaking moment in the history of women in law, as Yvonne broke through the barriers of gender discrimination that had long prevented women from pursuing careers in the legal profession. Her father, Harold Stranger KC, was a prominent barrister who encouraged and supported her ambitions, instilling in her a strong sense of determination and equality. Yvonne's achievement was a significant milestone in the fight for women's rights and paved the way for future generations of women lawyers. This photograph is a powerful reminder of the resilience and determination of women in the face of adversity and the progress that has been made towards gender equality in the legal profession and beyond.
