June Shagaloff Alexander, whose work for the NAACP and its legal arm in the 1950s and '60s put her at the forefront of the nationwide fight for school integration and made her a close confidante of civil rights figures like Thurgood Marshall and James Baldwin, died March 29 at her home in Tel Aviv, Israel. She was 93.
She helped Thurgood Marshall prepare for his Supreme Court fight and later took on de facto school segregation across the North and West.
