Program Description

Event Details

Join us in conversation with Judge LaDoris Hazzard Cordell (retired) to talk about her recent memoir Her Honor: My Life on the Bench...What Works, What’s Broken, and How to Change It. 

As the first African-American woman to serve as judge on the Superior Court of Northern California, Judge Cordell has a fascinating story. She will share her inspiring life's journey, leading to an extraordinary career on the bench, and culminating in her book. With candor, Judge Cordell will share many of the real cases over which she has presided, some with humor, some with serious concern, all with compassion and with an eye for justice for all. She will outline changes that can and should be made to improve our judicial system.

Renee Rettig, owner of Books on B in Hayward, will be in attendance with copies of Her Honor available for purchase at 10% discount. Judge Cordell will be happy to autograph books following her talk.

Masks not required, but recommended.
