In early December, members from the Florida Association for Women Lawyers Miami-Dade Chapter got together to enjoy an evening performance of the Tony award-winning production of Kinky Boots. The event was hosted by Judge David Young and featured a question and answer discussion, led by alumna Amber Kornreich ’15, on diversity and inclusion. Read the story here.

While at FIU Law, Kornreich served as the President of the Women’s Law Society and received such honors as the Faculty Recognition Award and the Outstanding Student Organization Award.

Inspired by true events, Kinky Boots tells the story of Charlie Price who inherits a shoe factory from his father. To save the business, price forms a partnership with cabaret performer and drag queen. Through their friendship, Price develops a plan to produce a line of high-heeled boots and in the process discovers that he and his new friend/partner are not so different after all.
