TENNYSON RESOLUTIONS

—ONE CASE AT A TIME—

Katherine Tennyson

Lawyer.

Judge.

Mediator.

Beginning in 1984, Katherine’s legal career includes decades of work focused on resolution of family conflict. Katherine’s preparation for this work began much, much earlier when she “worked” as a special assistant to her parents at their gas station and laundromat. Katherine’s many (self titled) jobs included Chief Purveyor of Jolly Ranchers, Best Washer of headlights and taillights and Designated Waterer of the petunias. She had a front row seat to her parents daily interaction with the community. By example, Katherine learned the value of genuine respect for people, to help where possible and to serve the public.

Katherine’s career is a testament to those early lessons. A demonstrated leader, locally and nationally, Katherine’s collaborative innovative work has included serving as President of the National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges in 2016. Katherine received the Wallace P. Carson Jr Award for Judicial Excellence in 2015 and the
OWLS Roberts/Diez Award in 2019
