American legal clerk and environmental activist who, despite the lack of a formal law school education, or any legal education, was instrumental in constructing a case against the Pacific Gas & Electric Company of California in 1993. Her exhaustive investigation uncovered that Pacific Gas & Electric had been poisoning the small town of Hinkley's Water for over 30 years. In 1996, as a result of the largest direct action lawsuit of its kind, spear-headed by Brockovich and Ed Masry, the utility giant was forced to pay out the largest toxic tort injury settlement in US history: $333 million in damages to more than 600 Hinkley residents. She is also the focus of the Oscar-winning film "Erin Brockovich" which starred Julia Roberts.
