Reg Graycar (Regina Graycar) is an Australian lawyer and academic. By 1992 she was an associate professor at the University of New South Wales,[1] and already working on the ways in which the law was biased against women.[1] From 1997 to 2012 she was a professor of law at the University of Sydney[2] and she served as Commissioner of the NSW Law Reform Commission from 1998 to 2002.[2] She has served on the advisory board for the Australian Feminist Law Journal.[3][4][5] Since her return to the NSW bar in late 2012 she became emeritus professor of the Law School of the University of Sydney.[2] She is currently (2024) a senior member of the NSW Civil and Administrative Tribunal.[6]

Graycar was awarded a Bachelor of Laws (Hons) degree from the University of Adelaide in 1978[7] and a Master of Laws degree from Harvard University in 1981.[7]

Graycar has explored the concept of family under Australian law,[8][9] gender bias in Australian law & judgments,[10][11] working at the intersection of feminism and the law,[12][13] and is co-author with Jenny Morgan of The Hidden Gender of Law.[14] Her work addresses the systematic failures of the legal system for those who are largely unrepresented in the legal system, including not only women, but adolescents,[15] the institutionally abused,[16] and aborigenes.[17] Given that she is addressing systemic failure, her work encompasses administrative law, constitutional law,[2] the law of torts,[18] legal systems and processes, together with law reform and legal responses to systemic injuries.[2]
