Gerald Leonard Spence (born January 8, 1929) is a semi-retired American trial lawyer. He is a member of the Trial Lawyer Hall of Fame. Spence has never lost a criminal case before a jury, either as a prosecutor or a defense attorney, and has not lost a civil case since 1969. Spence graduated from the University of Wyoming in 1949 and the University of Wyoming College of Law in 1952 and was first in his class.&nbsp;
He was awarded an honorary Doctor of Laws degree in May 1990. He started his career in Riverton, Wyoming, and later became a successful defense attorney for the insurance industry. Years later, Spence said he "saw the light" and became committed to representing people instead of corporations, insurance companies, banks, or "big business." From 1954 to 1962, he served as prosecuting attorney of Fremont County, Wyoming.
Gerry Spence and his second wife, Imaging, share their time between their homes in Dubois, Wyoming, and Santa Barbara, California. Despite having homes in two states, Spence said he would "die in Wyoming." Spence gained attention for the Karen Silkwood case. Karen Silkwood was a chemical technician at the Kerr-McGee plutonium-production plant, where she became an activist and vocal critic of plant safety, also known as a whistleblower.&nbsp;
On November 13, 1974, Silkwood died in a one-car crash under suspicious circumstances after reportedly gathering evidence for her union. Spence represented Silkwood's father and children, who charged that Kerr-McGee was responsible for exposing Silkwood to dangerous radiation levels. Spence won a $10.5 million verdict for the family.
In 1984, the United States Supreme Court upheld the family's right to sue under state law for punitive damages from a federally regulated industry. The Silkwood case achieved international fame and was the subject of many books, magazines, and newspaper articles, and the major motion picture Silkwood starring Meryl Streep as Karen Silkwood.
After the Silkwood case, Spence tried several high-profile cases. He has not lost a civil case since 1969 and has never lost a criminal case with a trial by jury. He has had several of his more prominent civil verdicts overturned on appeal and lost a 1985 manslaughter case in a bench trial in Newport, Oregon, in December 1985, later prevailing on appeal.
Spence successfully defended Randy Weaver on murder, assault, conspiracy, and gun charges in the Ruby Ridge, Idaho, federal standoff case by successfully impugning the conduct of the FBI and its crime lab. Spence never called a witness for the defense. He relied only on contradictions and holes in the prosecution's story. Spence later wrote that he rejected Weaver's anti-Semitic beliefs but took the case because he believed Weaver had been entrapped into committing a crime and, furthermore, that federal agents had behaved unconscionably in shooting Weaver's wife and children.
He also successfully defended Ed Cantrell in the Rock Springs, Wyoming, murder case, and he won the acquittal of former Filipino First Lady Imelda Marcos in New York City on federal racketeering charges. Spence also defended Earth First! Founder David Foreman, who in 1990 had been charged with conspiracy for an alleged plot to sabotage a water-pumping station.
On June 2, 2008, Spence acquitted Detroit lawyer Geoffrey Fieger, who was charged with making unlawful campaign contributions. Before returning a not-guilty verdict, the federal court jury deliberated 18 hours over four days. The acquittal maintained Spence's record of never losing a jury trial in a criminal matter.
In civil litigation, Spence won a $52 million verdict against McDonald's Corporation on behalf of a small, family-owned ice cream company. A medical malpractice verdict of over $4 million established a new standard for nursing care in Utah. In 1992 Spence earned $33.5 million verdicts for emotional and punitive damages for his quadriplegic client after a major insurance company refused to pay on the $50,000 policy.
In 1986, Spence defended Lee Harvey Oswald, the deceased assassin of U.S. President John F. Kennedy, against well-known prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi in a 21-hour televised unscripted mock trial sponsored by London Weekend Television in the United Kingdom. The mock trial involved an actual U.S. judge, a jury of U.S. citizens, introducing hundreds of evidence exhibits, and many actual witnesses to events surrounding and including the assassination.&nbsp;
The jury returned a guilty verdict. Expressing admiration for his adversary's prosecutorial skill, Spence remarked, "No other lawyer in America could have done what Vince did in this case." The "docu-trial" and his preparation for it inspired Bugliosi's 1600-page book examining the details of the Kennedy assassination and various related conspiracy theories, entitled Reclaiming History, winner of the 2008 Edgar Award for Best Fact Crime. In the book, Bugliosi cites his respect for Spence's abilities as a defense attorney as his impetus for digging more deeply into various aspects of the case than he perhaps would have otherwise.

Philip Dormer, Stanhope, 4th Earl of Chesterfield (1694-1773), was a British politician and diplomat. He was best known for the publication after his death of the Letters to his Son (London, J Dodsley, 1774). The son in question, Philip Stanhope, was illegitimate, and Chesterfield saw him infrequently but was determined he should become successful in the fields of politics and diplomacy.&nbsp;
Most of the letters were written while his son was touring Europe, accompanied by his tutor. He advised him on how to be well-mannered and pleasing and to charm both men and women. The letters were both celebrated and infamous: pious readers were offended by his cynical emphasis on external show and neglect of religion and morality.&nbsp;
The younger Philip Stanhope died at the age of 36, and Lord Chesterfield was surprised to find that he had married an illegitimate Irish girl, Eugenia Peters, and fathered two sons. His son’s wife published the Letters after Chesterfield’s death as a money-making venture: she sold the copyright to Dodsley for the large sum of 1,500 guineas. They were hugely popular: eleven editions appeared by 1800, and they were also printed in Paris, Amsterdam, and Leipzig.
In 1715, Philip Dormer Stanhope entered the House of Commons as Lord Stanhope of Shelford and as a member of St Germans. Later, when the impeachment of James Butler, 2nd Duke of Ormonde, came before the House, he used the occasion (5 August 1715) to try out the result of his rhetorical studies. His maiden speech was fluent and dogmatic, but upon its conclusion, another member, after first complimenting the speech, reminded the young orator that he was still six weeks short of his age of majority and consequently liable to a fine of £500 for speaking in the House.&nbsp;
Lord Stanhope left the House of Commons with a low bow and set out for the Continent. While in Paris, he sent the government valuable information about the developing Jacobite plot, and in 1716, he returned to Britain, resumed his seat, and became known as a skilled yet tactful debater. When King George I quarreled with his son, the Prince of Wales (George II) the same year, Lord Stanhope remained politically faithful to the Prince but was careful not to break with the King's party.
However, his continued friendly correspondence with the Prince's mistress, Henrietta Howard, later Countess of Suffolk, earned Chesterfield the personal hatred of the Prince's wife, Princess Caroline of Ansbach. In 1723, he was voted Captain of the Gentlemen Pensioners. In January 1725, on the revival of the Order of the Bath, the red ribbon was offered to him, but Chesterfield declined the honor.
Upon his father's death in 1726, Lord Stanhope assumed his seat in the House of Lords and became the 4th Earl of Chesterfield. The new Lord Chesterfield's inclination towards oration, often seen as ineffective in the House of Commons because of its polish and lack of force, was met with appreciation in the House of Lords and won many to his side.&nbsp;
In 1728, under service to the new king, George II, Chesterfield was sent to the Hague as ambassador, where his gentle tact and linguistic dexterity served him well. As a reward for his diplomatic service, Chesterfield received the Order of the Garter in 1730, the position of Lord Steward, and the friendship of Robert Walpole.

Wallace Delois Wattles was an American New Thought writer. He remains personally somewhat obscure, but his writing has been widely quoted and remains in print in the New Thought and self-help movements. Wattles' best-known work is a 1910 book called The Science of Getting Rich, in which he explains how to become wealthy.
Wattles' daughter, Florence A. Wattles, described her father's life in a "Letter" that was published shortly after his death in the New Thought magazine Nautilus, edited by Elizabeth Towne. The Nautilus had previously carried articles by Wattles in almost every issue, and Towne was also his book publisher. Florence Wattles wrote that her father was born in the U.S. in 1860, received little formal education, and found himself excluded from the world of commerce and wealth.
According to the 1880 US Federal Census, Wallace lived with his parents on a farm in Nunda Township, McHenry County, Illinois, and worked as a farm laborer. His father is listed as a gardener, and his mother is "keeping house." Wallace is listed as being born in Illinois, while his parents are listed as being born in New York. No other siblings are recorded as living with the family.&nbsp;
According to the 1910 census, Wattles was married to Abbie Wattles (née Bryant), 47. They had three children: Florence Wattles, 22, Russell H. Wattles, 27, and Agnes Wattles, 16. It also shows that at the time, Wallace's mother, Mary A. Wattles, was living with the family at the age of 79. Florence wrote that "he made lots of money, and had good health, except for his extreme frailty" in the last three years before his death.
Wattles died on February 7, 1911, in Ruskin, Tennessee, and his body was transported home for burial in Elwood, Indiana. As a sign of respect, businesses closed throughout the town for two hours on the afternoon of his funeral. His death at age 51 was regarded as "untimely" by his daughter; in the previous year, he had not only published two books (The Science of Being Well and The Science of Getting Rich), but he had also run for public office.
In 1896 in Chicago, Illinois, Wattles attended "a convention of reformers" and met George Davis Herron, a Congregational Church minister and professor of Applied Christianity at Grinnell College who was then attracting nationwide attention by preaching a form of Christian Socialism.
After meeting Herron, Wattles became a social visionary and began to expound upon what Florence called "the wonderful, social message of Jesus." According to Florence, he at one time had held a position in the Methodist Church but was ejected for his "heresy." Two of his books (A New Christ and Jesus: The Man and His Work) dealt with Christianity from a Socialist perspective.
In the 1908 election, he ran as a Socialist Party of America candidate in the Eighth Congressional District; in 1910 he again ran as a Socialist candidate for the office of Prosecuting Attorney for the Madison County, Indiana, 50th court district. He did not win either election. Florence Wattles remained a Socialist after his death and was a delegate to the Socialist Party National Committee in 1912 and 1915.

In this bold dive into the unpaid, invisible work women have shouldered for too long—and an impassioned vision for creating a better future for us all—Hartley explores the harsh realities of being overworked and underpaid, of bearing not only the physical weight of exhaustion but also the responsibility for maintaining relationships and keeping households running.
While women are charged with making things run smoothly but aren’t given the power to effect real change, Hartley proposes a way to sidestep burnout and gain control of our lives.

Emotional Labor

The book digs into traditional gender roles and their impact on emotional labor. Hartley shows how societal expectations can lead to an unfair distribution of this work. She encourages us to challenge these norms and strive for more balanced relationships.

Gender Roles

Hartley emphasizes the importance of communication in addressing emotional labor. She suggests that open and honest conversations can help to redistribute this work more fairly. Check out Fed Up to find practical tips on how to start these conversations.

Self-Care

Fed Up

Gemma Hartley is an American author and journalist best known for a viral article in Harper's Bazaar on emotional labor and her subsequent book Fed Up: Emotional Labor, Women, and the Way Forward (HarperCollins, 2018). In 2017, Hartley wrote an article for Harper's Bazaar entitled "Women Aren't Nags—We're Just Fed Up," about the struggles women in heterosexual relationships face in trying to divide household labor equitably, including both the visible labor and the invisible mental labor that women end up doing much more of.&nbsp;
The article went viral, earning millions of views and social media shares, bringing forward the subject of emotional labor that women disproportionally bear and sparking a national conversation on gender inequality. The attention the article gained created interest from book publishers, and Hartley got a book deal to expand the concept.&nbsp;
In 2018, HarperCollins published Hartley's book Fed Up: Emotional Labor, Women, and the Way Forward. In Fed Up, Hartley highlights the many ways women carry unequal labor burdens within the household, both seen and unseen, and offers solutions for having productive conversations to equalize that labor.
Hartley describes emotional labor as a cultural problem that's taught to all of us at a young age and deeply ingrained, and it must therefore be addressed that way, as a cultural problem we must unlearn. Fed Up offers solutions for avoiding gender inequality and undue emotional labor for women in the workplace.
Fed Up has been compared to Soraya Chemaly's book Rage Becomes Her, Rebecca Traister's Good and Mad, and other books focused on women's anger over various aspects of gender inequality. Aside from emotional labor, Hartley also writes extensively about feminism, the challenges of motherhood, and work culture.
