'You cannot be afraid to try and fail because if you don't try, you automatically fail” - 24 years after she was appointed in Salt Lake County, Judge Shauna Graves-Robertson is still the only black female judge in the state. JennaBreeTV

From a young age, Robertson dreamed of being a judge; she became an active member of her youth NAACP branch and worked with the Salt Lake League of Defenders. At the time, there was no one on any bench in Utah who looked like her.

Judge Robertson was appointed to Salt Lake County's court in 1999, when all four judges were women. Now, she sits on the bench alone.
