Sherry Boston 99L is the recipient of the 2026 Trailblazer Award.

Boston stands among the elite in the world of prosecution as part of the rare 1% of African American women serving as district attorneys nationwide. Leading a staff of more than 300 in DeKalb County, Boston has placed her office on the cutting edge of justice—mandating implicit bias training and launching specialized units to combat human trafficking and firearm violence. Recognized repeatedly as one of metro Atlanta’s Most Influential People, her innovative leadership continues to shape the national dialogue on criminal justice reform, making her a fitting recipient for this year's Trailblazer Award.

The Trailblazer Award commemorates Eléonore Raoul 1920L, the first woman admitted to Emory University, who became a national leader in the women’s suffrage movement. It can be awarded to any alumnus who has blazed a trail for women through their own professional and personal endeavors. Recipients will be recognized at the 2026 Emory Law Alumni Awards in October.
