Prior to becoming a professor, Professor Tucker worked at the NAACP Legal Defense Fund in San Francisco and Georgia Legal Services in Albany, and served as an attorney in private practice. In 1991, she was selected as a Fulbright-Hays Fellow and traveled to southern Africa to study social and economic changes in that region of the world.
