Jill Wine-Banks (born c. 1945〔She was 44 years old as of March 31, 1989 according to (David Margolick, "At the Bar; High bar official draws fire over dismissals, flamboyance and Dalmatians", ''New York Times'', March 31, 1989 )〕) is a United States lawyer who was one of the prosecutors during the Watergate scandal, and who served as General Counsel of the Army from 1977 to 1980. ==Biography== Jill Wine was born c. 1945, and raised in Chicago, where her father was a Certified Public Accountant.〔(Linda Witt, "Watergate's Jill Wine-Banks Has a New Hubby—and a Job with An Old Foe, Bert Jenner", ''People'', Aug. 24, 1981 )〕 She was educated at the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign, receiving a B.S. in Communications,〔(Profile from F&H Solutions Group )〕 and at Columbia Law School, receiving a J.D. in 1968.〔 She married Ian Volner, who was also a lawyer, and began using the name Jill Wine Volner.〔 After law school, Wine Volner joined the United States Department of Justice, becoming one of the first female attorneys in the organized crime section.〔 During the Watergate scandal, she served on the staff of special prosecutor Leon Jaworski.〔 In that capacity, in the proceedings before Judge John Sirica, she was responsible for cross-examining President of the United States Richard Nixon's secretary Rose Mary Woods about the 18-1/2 minute gap on the Watergate tapes.〔 After Watergate, Wine Volner joined a Washington, D.C. law firm.〔 In 1977, President Jimmy Carter nominated her to serve as General Counsel of the Army, and she subsequently held that post until 1980.〔 She also divorced Ian Volner, and, in 1980, married a high school flame, Michael Banks, an antiques dealer living in Winnetka, Illinois, and changed her name to Jill Wine-Banks.〔 In 1980, at the behest of Albert E. Jenner, Jr., who had served on the staff of the Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee during Watergate and who had been impressed with her in-court performance, she became a partner at the Chicago law firm of Jenner & Block.〔 In 1987, she became the executive director of the American Bar Association, the first woman to hold that position.〔(David Margolick, "At the Bar; High bar official draws fire over dismissals, flamboyance and Dalmatians", ''New York Times'', March 31, 1989 )〕 In 1989, there was a minor scandal after Wine-Banks convinced the Illinois Attorney General's office, of which Wine-Banks had once been the second in command, to assign a prosecutor to investigate a veterinarian who she believed had negligently treated her Dalmatian, leading to the dog's death.〔 After the ''Chicago Tribune'' ran a story titled"'Grieving Dog Owner Unleashes Clout With State", a former ABA president, Eugene Thomas, circulated a letter in which he said that Wine-Banks "does not understand the use of power and lacks a sense of decorum and propriety in professional matters" and should be dismissed by the ABA.〔 She later left the ABA in 1990.〔(Jill Wine-Banks' LinkedIn Profile )〕 In 1992, Wine-Banks joined Motorola as a Director and Vice President, a position she held until 2000.〔 From 1997 to 2000, she was also a Vice President of Maytag.〔 In 2001, she founded and was the Chief Executive Officer of Winning Workplaces, a human resources firm.〔 She left Winning Workplaces in 2003 and joined the Chicago Public Schools as Chief Officer for Career and Technical Education, a post she held until 2008.〔 Since November 2008, Wine-Banks has worked as a consultant with F & H Solutions.〔(Jill Wine-Banks' LinkedIn Profile ), (Profile from F&H Solutions Group )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jill Wine-Banks」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
