In this episode we discuss former prosecutor, Marcia Clark. We address some of the cases she covered and the stigmas she faced as a female lawyer in the 1990s. We spend some time covering the way that the media treated her during high profile cases, in particular during the OJ Simpson trial in which she served as the head of the prosecution. Then we talk about the realities of being a female lawyer during this time and during this case, including being a working mom and sexism in the workplace. Finally we wrap up with the impact that Clark has had, both in the courtroom and beyond in the years since the Simpson trial.
