Erin Eileen Morrow Hawley is an American attorney and law professor at the University of Missouri School of Law where she teaches federal courts and constitutional law, as well as administrative, tax, and agricultural law.

Biography[edit]

Hawley grew up on a cattle ranch near Des Moines, New Mexico, where she was active in Future Farmers of America, and attended public schools.[1][2][3] She studied at Casper Junior College in Casper, Wyoming, and in 2002 received her Bachelor of Science degree from Texas A&M University.[4][5] In the summer of 2001, she interned for Congressman Mac Thornberry (R-TX).[4] She started her legal studies at the University of Texas Law School, and transferred to Yale Law School, where she graduated with a Juris doctor degree in 2005.[6] At Yale, she was a Coker Fellow in Constitutional Law and an editor of the Yale Law Journal.[7] After law school, she clerked for Judge J. Harvie Wilkinson III of the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, and then for Chief Justice John Roberts of the Supreme Court of the United States from 2007 to 2008.[8]

Following her clerkships, she practiced appellate law in Washington, D.C. at Bancroft LLP, now part of Kirkland & Ellis where she remains Of Counsel. She also worked at the United States Department of Justice as counsel to Attorney General Michael Mukasey from September 2008 to January 2009, and at King & Spalding LLP from May 2009 to June 2011. In December 2010, she successfully argued the case of Hillbroom v. Pricewaterhousecoopers LLP[9] before the District of Columbia Court of Appeals, winning dismissal of claims against the accounting firm in a large trust dispute. In July 2011, she joined the faculty of the University of Missouri as an Associate Professor of Law and on July 31, 2015 was granted tenure.[10][11][12]

Hawley has authored a series of amicus briefs in litigation before the U.S. Supreme Court. In 2012, she co-authored a brief on behalf of the Defense Research Institute with Paul Clement in Standard Fire Insurance Co. v. Knowles.[13] In 2014, Hawley authored an amicus brief submitted to the U.S. Supreme Court in Burwell v. Hobby Lobby Stores defending the store's position that it could choose whether to offer its employees health insurance that covered contraception services.[14][15] In 2013 and 2014, she co-founded with her husband the legal advocacy groups Missouri Liberty Project and the Missouri Forward Foundation.[16][17][18] In 2014 and 2015, she published three law review articles on U.S. Supreme Court jurisdiction, which argued the Court is best served by narrowly regulating the cases it hears.

Personal life[edit]

In 2010, she married Josh Hawley, who currently serves as the Missouri Attorney General, and they have two children.[19]
