AL.com has named its 2016 Women Who Shape the State, a list of Alabama women who have changed their neighborhoods, cities and Alabama for the better.
The program evolved out of the Birmingham-based Women Who Make a Difference, which launched in 2013. Last year the list was expanded to honor women throughout Alabama. More than 100 women were nominated and 30 were selected.
UA Law School graduates on the list are:
- Mary Margaret Carroll (’10)
- Leigh Davis (’97)
- Mary Scott Hunter (’98)
- Deborah J. Long (’80)
- Patricia C. Wallwork (’00)
