In 1975, she obtained her J.D. degree from Albany Law School.
She was the first female judge on the Westchester County Court bench-a hugely prestigious honor.
Jeanine Ferris was born on June 2, 1951 in Elmira, New York, to Lebanese-American parents Nasser “Leo” and Esther Ferris (née Awad). Her father was a mobile-home salesman, and her mother was a department-store model. Pirro knew she wanted to be an attorney from the age of six.
On May 26, 1986, Pirro, then an assistant district attorney, was announced as the running mate of Westchester County Executive and presumptive Republican gubernatorial nominee Andrew O’Rourke. Pirro was selected by O’Rourke and New York State Republican Committee Chairman Anthony J. Colavita after nearly a dozen individuals declined the position, including Erie County Executive Ed Rutkowski, Hempstead Presiding Supervisor Thomas Gulotta, and the Executives of Broome and Oneida Counties. Colavita, who said at the press conference that he “had so many say ‘no’ to me (during the lieutenant governor search), it doesn’t hurt anymore,” pointed to Pirro’s prosecutorial experience, ability to effectively use crime as an issue, Italian married name, youth, and status as a woman when asked about her strengths as a candidate.
During a 1986 abortive campaign for Lieutenant Governor of New York, Pirro boasted to have never lost a case in “about 50 trials.” This number was disputed when presented in 2005 to colleagues, who said that the real number of trials personally handled by Pirro “wasn’t more than 10.” Pirro’s then-spokesman, Anne Marie Corbalis, contended only that Pirro had a “100% felony conviction rate” as an Assistant District Attorney.
