Passion and Power: A Life in Three Worlds, the memoir of Harriet Newman Cohen, was reviewed in the New York Law Journal by Daniel Kornstein, Esq. on May 4, 2026.

Kornstein praises the book as an unusually candid, remarkable and inspiring account of a life shaped by persistence, purpose, and the pursuit of justice, told with frankness, verve and self-understanding. Reflecting on Cohen’s extraordinary career in matrimonial law, divorce reform, and advocacy, Kornstein concludes that “this fine memoir, with its many cultural references, similes and metaphors, makes one want to read on. The timeliness, topicality, candor and style of the memoir attract wider interest and lay bare the struggles -- emotional as well as professional -- involved in a life and career. Cohen may be a divorce lawyer, but this is not a book about divorce. It is a book about the flame-like, tireless human spirit.”

Get ready for a great read from one of our powerhouse alumnae: Harriet Newman Cohen ’74, the founding partner of matrimonial and family law firm Cohen Stine Kapoor, where her clientele includes celebrities and other high-net-worth individuals. She was interviewed in New York Weekly about her forthcoming memoir, Passion and Power: A Life in Three Worlds ( Bloomsbury, Feb. 5, 2026).
In the book, Cohen describes what it was like to a divorce lawyer in the 1970s. There were few women in the field at the time, and she was often mistaken for being a client, not the attorney.
From the article:

Her new memoir explores that era’s gender barriers with frankness and humor, tracing her evolution from housewife to advocate. “I wanted to tell my story because the world I grew up in doesn’t exist anymore,” she said. “And I remember it all.”

Big win for CSK. A New York court can’t create a civil marriage when a clergyman testifies that he did not perform a wedding ceremony between the parties. That would violate the separation of church and state. The existence of a marriage license -- these parties didn’t have one -- would not have changed this result.
