CHICAGO, IL – The Illinois State Bar Association (ISBA) at its Midyear Meeting on December 8 honored the 1960 Class of Distinguished Counsellors at a luncheon at the Sheraton Chicago Hotel & Towers. The lawyers were celebrating 50 years of service to the Illinois bar (see list below).

Cook County Circuit Judge Carole K. Bellows spoke on behalf of the 134 members of the class. She reminded her classmates of the incredible progress made in the area of civil rights since the class passed the bar in 1960. Bellows was the nation’s first woman to serve as president of a state bar association when she became ISBA president in 1977.

The 33,000-member Illinois State Bar Association, with offices in Springfield and Chicago, provides professional services to Illinois lawyers, and education and services to the public.
