Emma Gillett
Emma Gillett (July 30, 1852 – January 23, 1927) was an American lawyer and women's rights activist who played a pivotal role in the advancement of legal studies for women.〔(Emma Gillett )〕
==Early background==
Gillett was born in Princeton, Wisconsin to Wisconsin homesteaders. She was educated in Girard, Pennsylvania, when her family moved following the death of her father. In 1870, she graduated from Lake Erie College and taught for the following ten years in the Pennsylvania public school system. During her time as a teacher, she became frustrated and the meager wages that were paid to single women teachers.
After the death of her mother, Gillett's role in the settlement of her estate sparked an interest in law, as well as for a better paying profession. Encouraged by the news of Belva Lockwood, who had become the first female law student at National University in Washington, DC; Gillett moved to Washington in hopes of following in Lockwood's footsteps. Unfortunately, she found that National University had closed its doors to women. Gillette did gain admission at Howard University, and graduated in 1882 with an LL.B and in 1883 with an LL.M.〔Emma Gillett〕 She passed the bar in the District of Columbia the same year. Additionally, she became first woman to be appointed a notary public by the president of the United States.
