ALEXIS MCNAUGHTON KNOX 1983 - 2006 Acknowledgements The editors are grateful to the many people who, in different ways, contributed to this volume. Among them are: Hon. Judith S. Kaye, Chief Judge of the State of New York, whose creative vision and passionate commitment to women and families serve as foundations for projects such as this. Hon. John T. Buckley, Presiding Justice of the Appellate Division, First Department, who has graciously lent us the prestige and resources of the Appellate Division. Hon. Betty Weinberg Ellerin, former Associate Justice and former Presiding Justice of the Appellate Division, First Department, now special counsel to Alston & Bird. Judge Ellerin is second to none in her devotion to the community this volume is designed to serve. She supported us, as always, in her own indomitable and inimitable way, with affection and wisdom. Ted Ermansons, graphic artist extraordinaire, who is responsible for the elegant design of this volume. He understood what we wanted before we did and created harmony of subject and object. Ted shot the remarkable photographs that grace this book. Elizabeth Peters, who worked under considerable pressure and with tremendous skill to get accurate and attractive camera-ready copy to the printer, all the time maintaining an aura of calm, assured composure. Alix Lerner, who cheerfully and expertly proofread this entire volume. The advocates for domestic violence victims whose faces adorn the cover of this book, and, in particular, Alexis McNaughton Knox, whose photo also appears on this page. Alexis, who recently died in a car accident, was a brilliant young woman with a passionate commitment to women’s rights. Her death was a tragic loss not just to friends and family but to the community she hoped to serve. The contributors, one and all, who took the time to write about the work and people to whom they devote so much of their lives. Jill Laurie Goodman Dorchen A. Leidholdt October 2006
