LOS ANGELES — Susan B. Jordan, an activist lawyer who represented high-profile clients such as Symbionese Liberation Army member Sara Jane Olson, died in a plane crash. She was 67.

Jordan of Ukiah, Calif., was the passenger in a two-seater plane that crashed Friday after clipping a power line, said Garfield County, Utah, sheriff's spokeswoman Becki Bronson. The pilot, John Austin, 64, of Boulder, Utah, was also killed.

Jordan, who practiced in the San Francisco area for many years, came to prominence in the 1970s when she represented clients on the fringes of the Patty Hearst trial. She also gained fame for a landmark case of rape victim Inez Garcia who was convicted of killing one of her attackers. In a 1977 retrial, Jordan won Garcia's acquittal on grounds that she acted in self defense.
