Editor's Note: Tune in at 8 p.m. ET for an in-depth look at the women accusing Herman Cain of harassment.
This profile of Gloria Allred was written in October 2010 and updated November 7 to include her representation of Sharon Bialek.
Los Angeles (CNN) - Her clients include mistresses, starlets and allegedly wronged women from all walks of life. So, when Gloria Allred calls a news conference, media types know they're about to hear some dish.
So it was on Monday, when Allred stepped in front of the cameras at the Friar's Club in New York City and presented client Sharon Bialek.
Bialek, a former manager with the National Restaurant Association and a registered Republican, described in graphic detail how GOP presidential hopeful Herman Cain sexually groped her in 1997 when she sought his help in finding a job.
Bialek, a single mother from Chicago, said she was coming forward to provide a public face to sexual harassment claims against Cain from three other women.
