Henry Wade (1914-2001) was District Attorney of Dallas County from 1951 to 1987. In addition to the Kennedy assassination, he is perhaps best remembered today as the "Wade" in the landmark 1973 Supreme Court case, Roe v. Wade. He recorded an oral history with the Museum in 1992. -- Stephen Fagin, Curator
