In 1984, Governor Bill Clinton (no relation to her then-husband) appointed her to a vacant criminal division judgeship on the Pulaski County Circuit Court. In 1988, she was elected chancery and probate judge for Pulaski and Perry counties.[1]

Prior to taking the bench, Imber was in private practice for several years with the Little Rock law firm of Wright, Lindsey & Jennings. Justice Imber received her undergraduate degree from Smith College in Northampton, Massachusetts and her law degree from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock. On September 10, 2009 Justice Imber announced plans to retire from the bench. She retired January 1, 2010.[2]

The first woman elected to the Arkansas Supreme Court, Imber is best known for a case she handled while she was a chancery judge in the 6th Judicial District (Perry and Pulaski counties).

In 1994, she issued a landmark ruling in the school-funding case filed by the tiny Lake View School District that declared the state was violating the Arkansas Constitution by funding districts inequitably.[3]

gollark: How can drones damage you?
gollark: Unless they just use the internet to download a big program for control. That would work fine.
gollark: Firstly, you can just pick up drones with screnches. Secondly, they can't actually fire weapons or anything as far as I know (maybe they could drop radioactive material, that would be !!FUN!!). Thirdly, I doubt the drones are very secure.
gollark: Anyway, don't worry much about killer drones, they make poor weapons.
gollark: I wonder if you could automatically try and trilaterate/triangulate radiation sources using a network of Geiger counters.
