Alabama Women's Hall of Fame
Dear Friends of the Alabama Women's Hall of Fame:
The Alabama Women's Hall of Fame was established in 1970 at Judson College, Marion, Alabama. The purpose of this Hall of Fame is to recognize those women native to, or most closely identified with, the State of Alabama who have made significant contributions on a state, national, or international scale within their professional or personal fields of activity or concern. After the closure of Judson College in 2021, the Hall of Fame was relocated to the University of West Alabama in Livingston. Through the 2023 induction, 102 women have been inducted into the Hall of Fame.
Linked is a form that may be used to submit a nomination for induction. Nomination materials may also be emailed to VBurnes@uwa.edu. Required materials are a biographical summary, a resumé of the nominee's significant achievements, honors and awards, memberships, and professional history. Please include with your nomination any other documentation that you believe establishes your nominee as superior to most other women of Alabama of her time; however, the information in the required materials must be sufficiently complete to stand on its own. To be eligible for consideration, a nominee must have been deceased for two years.
All submitted materials will become a part of the Alabama Women's Hall of Fame Archives. Nominations not selected for the Hall of Fame in any given year are welcome to be re-submitted in following nomination cycles. Nominations must be submitted on a current nomination form each year they are to be considered. Nomination forms for 2025 should be submitted by August 15, 2024.
A clear high-resolution photograph should be included with the nomination. The photograph will be used in preparation of the bronze plaque and press releases.
Sincerely,
Dr. Valerie P. Burnes
Executive Secretary
