The Association of American Law Schools honored Herma Hill Kay on Jan. 7 with the Triennial Award for Lifetime Service to Legal Education and the Law. A Berkeley Law professor since 1960 and the school’s dean from 1992 to 2000, Kay is a pioneering scholar in family law and conflict of laws. She was the lead author of California’s no-fault divorce law—the first such law in the nation—and co-wrote the Uniform Marriage and Divorce Act, which became the standard for no-fault divorce nationwide.
