Brooklyn Women’s Bar honors Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul and two of their own at gala
The Brooklyn Women’s Bar Association held its 101st annual dinner at the Liberty Warehouse in Red Hook on Wednesday at which it honored three members of the legal community including Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul.
More than 300 bar association members and their guests packed into a room that overlooked the Statue of Liberty, the World Trade Center and the Verrazzano Bridge to honor Hochul as well as Andrea Bonina and past President Holly Peck.
“This has been a banner year for the Women’s Bar Association,” said Carrie Anne Cavallo, president of the association for the past year. “I must thank each and every one of our members for participation at our events and for helping us increase our membership. We are now at over 500 members strong. For the first time, Brooklyn is now the second largest chapter of the Women’s Bar Association of the State of New York.”
