Managing Partner, Barnes & Thornburg Minneapolis office
B.A., English, 1993; J.D., William Mitchell College of Law
Connie Lahn, recently elected to her fourth two-year term as managing partner of Barnes & Thornburg’s Minneapolis office, pursues leadership roles because she didn’t see many women leaders earlier in her career.
Lahn also is secretary of Barnes & Thornburg’s management committee, which consists of managing partners of the firm’s 13 offices around the country. She is the firm’s only female managing partner.
"I loved that SCSU had flexible class schedules and abundant class offerings. It allowed me the opportunity to work throughout college and yet participate in college events. I also am grateful for the caring and devoted facility. I genuinely felt cared for by the entire English department during my time at SCSU." - Connie Lahn '93
