Marian Wright Edelman, founder and president of the Children's
Defense Fund (CDF), has been an advocate for disadvantaged
Americans for her entire professional
career. Under her leadership, CDF
has become the nation's strongest
voice for children and families.
Mrs. Edelman, a graduate of
Spelman College and Yale Law School,
began her career in the mid-60s when, as
the first black woman admitted to the Mississippi
Bar, she directed the NAACP Legal
Defense and Educational Fund office
in Jackson, Mississippi. In l968, she
moved to Washington, D.C., as counsel
for the Poor People's March that Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., began organizing before
his death. She founded the Washington
Research Project, a public interest law
firm and the parent body of the Children's
Defense Fund. For two years she served
as the Director of the Center for Law and
Education at Harvard University and in
1973 began CDF.
