GRACE Lucile (Berg) SCHAIBLE
Grace Berg Schaible has been a major player in the shaping of this state and its institutions.
She started her law career in Fairbanks, becoming the first person admitted to practice in the newly minted Alaska court system. In 1987 she was appointed as the first (and to date, only) female Attorney General. She served, again as the first woman, as chair of the Board of Trustees of the Alaska Permanent Fund from 1995-97. In addition to being a graduate of the University of Alaska and member of its Board of Regents, she has been a major donor of money, land, buildings and art to the university system. Among her many awards, she received an Honorary Doctor of Laws degree from UAF in 1991 and in 2000 the William A. Egan Outstanding Alaskan award from the Alaska Chamber of Commerce.
