ABOUT THIS BOOK: Currently a Circuit Court Judge in Tennessee's 30th Judicial District, D'Army Bailey has enjoyed a long and diverse career as an activist, a politician, an attorney, a writer and columnist, a public servant, and now, a jurist. A graduate of Clark University in Worcester, Massachusetts (1964) and the Yale Law School (1967), Judge Bailey became active in the Civil Rights Movement in the early 1960s and served briefly as a member of the Berkeley California City Council before returning, in 1974, to his hometown of Memphis, Tennessee to practice law. In 1983, Judge Bailey organized the Lorraine Civil Rights Museum Foundation, Inc. in hopes of raising enough money to preserve the Lorraine Motel-where Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated-as a museum. After a long and tedious process of raising the requisite funding, the Lorraine building, which had been left to decay by the city, was transformed into a museum that traces the entire United States Civil Rights Movement. The museum was officially dedicated in July 1991. Today, Judge Bailey resides in Memphis with his wife, Adrienne, and two sons, Justin and Merritt. Condition: Good. SIGNED! Personalized (see photo)!
