It has been my great fortune to know Marcia Goldstein so well on many levels—as a mentor, a colleague and a friend. Everyone in the bankruptcy and restructuring field knows of Marcia Goldstein, or really just “Marcia,” and the impact she has had on the practice area. Her career boasts a litany of landmark cases and turnarounds that have become touchstones of the restructuring bar—WorldCom, MF Global, Parmalat, Takata, Washington Mutual, AIG and more.

What truly sets Marcia apart, though, is the effect she has had as a trailblazer for and champion of women in the law. As a mentee of Marcia, I know this firsthand. Marcia demonstrated early on to me that it was possible to be an extremely successful attorney, raise good kids and be a genuinely decent and down-to-earth person. And she showed me that a woman didn’t have to hide her femininity to gain respect and achieve success.
