Bettina Plevan, Litigator Who Shattered Glass Ceilings, Dies at 75
She was president of the New York City Bar Association from 2004 to 2006. When Hurricane Katrina struck the Gulf Coast in 2005, she reached out to bar associations in that region to share the lessons the New York bar had learned after the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, about providing extensive pro bono services to victims. This included helping displaced families find housing, medical care and schooling.
