Pillar of Montana law, government finance ‘matriarch’ Dorsey & Whitney’s Mae Nan Ellingson retiring

"You know, we have four branches of government: We’ve got the executive, the judiciary, the Legislature, and Mae Nan Ellingson," said Ewer, executive director of the state Board of Investments. "And I’m actually only half joking."

A pillar of law in the state of Montana and the youngest delegate to the 1972 Constitutional Convention is retiring from legal practice.

Mae Nan Ellingson, who spent the last 28 years as a public finance lawyer for Dorsey & Whitney http://www.matr.net/click.php?id=&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dorsey.com%2Flocations%2FOffice.aspx%3Foffice%3D22 in Missoula, has moved out of her corner office in the Millennium Building, and in one more week, she tells her colleagues goodbye.
