You've probably seen her on t-shirts, mugs, and even tattoos, well, now that famous face graces the cover of our latest Who Is title. You've probably seen her on T-shirts, mugs, and even tattoos. Now that famous face graces the cover of this Who Was book. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was famous for her stylish collars (called jabots) and her commanding dissents. This opera-loving New Yorker always spoke her mind; as a young lawyer, RBG advocated for gender equality and women's rights when few others did. She gained attention for the cases she won when arguing in front of the Supreme Court, before taking her place on the bench in 1993. Author Patricia Brennan Demuth answers all the questions about what made RBG so irreplaceable and how the late Supreme Court justice left a legacy that will last forever.
Patricia Brennan Demuth is the author of several Who HQ titles, including Who Was Bill Gates, What Was Pearl Harbor, and What Was D-Day
