When did Patricia Roberts Harris argue before the US Supreme Court?

∙ 13y ago
Patricia Roberts Harris was a member of the Department of Justice for only two years, and worked in the appeals and research section of the criminal division. Although she was admitted to practice at the Supreme Court bar, there is no record of her ever having argued a case before the Court. Most likely, she was considered too inexperienced during her brief tenure, or may not have been directly linked to the Solicitor General's Office, the department that argues cases on behalf of the United States.
Harris left the Department of Justice to become a law professor and an Associate Dean of the law school at Howard University.
In 1965, President Lyndon Johnson appointed her as the first African-American Ambassador. She served two years in the Luxembourg Embassy, then returned to Howard.
In 1976, President Carter made her the first African-American cabinet member when he appointed her to preside over the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). She graduated to a larger post in 1979 when she became head of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare.
Harris left office after Ronald Reagan won the 1980 Presidential election.
