But nearly three decades after she challenged the profession to look beyond formal equality, her words raise an enduring question: What does it take to turn opportunity into lasting change? In September 1997, Mary Gaudron stood before a gathering of women lawyers in Melbourne and reflected on a belief she had once held about equality in the legal profession.
