Hollowell was Georgia’s chief civil rights attorney during the 1950s and 1960s. He defended African American men accused or convicted of capital crimes in a racially hostile legal system; represented movement activists arrested for their civil rights work; and fought to undermine the laws that maintained state-sanctioned racial discrimination.
