Summary
Judge D'Army Bailey was born in 1941 and raised in Memphis, Tennessee. Expelled from Southern University in the early 1960s for demonstrating in protest of segregation, he earned his B.A. from Clark University and graduated from Yale Law School in 1967. Bailey then served as national director of the Law Students Civil Rights Research Council from 1967, staff attorney to the San Francisco Neighborhood Legal Assistance Foundation from 1968, and program adviser to the Field Foundation from 1970 to 1971. He was recalled from the Berkeley, California City Council because of his controversial black nationalist politics. Bailey then returned to Memphis, where he practiced law. In 1990, he was elected Circuit Court Judge in Tennessee's 30th Judicial District. He also helped found the National Civil Rights Museum at the Lorraine Motel, where Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King was assassinated. Bailey passed away on July 12, 2015 at the age of seventy-three.
