Dawn Jones has an unusual backstory for a new president of the State Bar of Georgia: “For as long as I can remember,” she said, “I wanted to be a nurse.”
She treated patients for more than a decade in intensive care units at Grady and Emory hospitals, among others, before deciding to become a lawyer. Her medical background has made her particularly attuned to the challenges of COVID-19. She adds that her life as a Black woman means she understands what’s behind the racial upheaval the country is experiencing.
