   Sarah Weddington (1945-2021) was one of the lawyers who represented "Jane Roe". She was at the beginning of her career at the time of Roe v. Wade, and it was the first case she'd argued in court. She was 26 years old when proceedings began.

   Weddington studied at McMurry University and later the University of Texas Law School. During her third year of law school, she travelled to Mexico to obtain an abortion.
