Trial by Fire is a book written by attorney Gerry Spence, which recounts the events surrounding the libel lawsuit brought by former Miss Wyoming Kim Pring against Penthouse Magazine in 1980.[1][2] Pring had been sexually ridiculed in Hustler magazine after becoming Miss Wyoming, and Spence argued that her right to privacy as a non-public persona had been violated.
