in 2007 following two clerkships at the
U.S. Supreme Court for Justices Clarence
Thomas and Samuel A. Alito Jr. She was
a member of the Becket Fund legal team
that secured victories in key U.S. Supreme
Court religious liberty cases, including
Holt v. Hobbs (requiring prison officials
to accommodate peaceful expressions of
religious devotion); Burwell v. Hobby Lobby
(holding that family-owned businesses
enjoy religious liberty rights under the
Religious Freedom Restoration Act); and
Hosanna-Tabor Evangelical Lutheran
Church and School v. EEOC (holding that
the “ministerial exception” under the First
Amendment protects a church’s right to
choose its own ministers). Smith has also
contributed to numerous other Supreme
Court filings by the Becket Fund. She has
been featured on many radio and television
shows and in many publications, such as
CNN, the Wall Street Journal, U.S. News
and World Report, Bloomberg News, NPR,
and the Rush Limbaugh Show. Smith has
been invited to speak on religious liberty
at several law schools, including Harvard,
Princeton, Stanford, and BYU, and she has
given briefings on religious liberty issues at

and Public Policy Studies, the American Bar
Association, and the National Constitution
Center.

Judge Wallace has spent much of his time
traveling the world to promote the rule of
law in developing countries. His support
for the “rule of law” movement—which
seeks to instill the concepts and ideals of
an independent judiciary and impartial
judicial system—dates back to 1972, when
he began using his personal vacation time
to visit judiciaries overseas. He has worked
with judiciaries in more than 50 countries
and on every continent. He was featured
on the cover of the August 2009 edition of
California Lawyer for this work. A prolific
writer, lecturer, and teacher, he has taught
courses in judicial administration in the
United States and throughout the world
and has consulted with more than 50
judiciaries worldwide. He developed the
concept of the Conference of Chief Justices
of Asia and the Pacific. He also originated
the idea and developed the concept
for the American Inns of Court. Judge
Wallace and his wife, Dr. Jenee Wallace,
have a blended family of 15 children and
51 grandchildren. Throughout his long
and distinguished career of professional,
church, and community service, Judge
Wallace has received a great many honors,
recognitions, and awards, including the
2005 Edward J. Devitt Distinguished
Service to Justice Award, generally regarded
as “the most prestigious honor conferred
on a member of the federal judiciary.” The
International Center for Law and Religion
Studies bestowed its highest honor, the
Distinguished Service Award for Religious
Freedom, upon Judge Wallace in 2009.
Deano C. Ware
Attorney, Representing Hosanna-Tabor
Evangelical Lutheran Church and School
Deano Ware is an attorney in Redmond,
Michigan, who was thrust into the limelight
when asked to defend the Hosanna-Tabor
Evangelical Lutheran Church and School
against a suit brought by a former teacher
and the Equal Employment Opportunity
Commissions alleging unlawful dismissal
under the Federal Americans with
Disabilities Act. After Mr. Ware secured a
victory for his client at the district court
level, the case was reversed by the Court
of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, which
held that the ministerial exception did
not bar the plaintiff ’s claims. The case was
ultimately taken to the U.S. Supreme Court
in what the Becket Fund for Religious
Liberty calls “the most significant religious
liberty decision of the past half-century.”
There, following briefing and argument
by the Becket Fund, along with Professor
Douglas Laycock of the UVA Law School,
the U.S. Supreme Court unanimously
upheld the right of religious organizations
to choose their own ministers and declared
that “the church must be free to choose
those who will guide it on its way.” The
early trial court victory won by Ware was
reinstated and a major victory for religious
liberty was won.
