Ruth Bader Ginsburg is a U.S. Supreme Court justice, the second woman to be appointed to the position. Born on March 15, 1933, in Brooklyn, New York, Ruth Ginsburg earned her bachelor's degree in government from Cornell University in 1954, finishing first in her class. At Harvard, Ginsburg learned to balance life as a mother and her new role as a law student. She also encountered a very male-dominated, hostile environment, with only eight other females in her class of more than 500. The women were chided by the law school's dean for taking the places of qualified males. But Ginsburg pressed on and excelled academically, eventually becoming the first female member of the prestigious Harvard Law Review. Ginsburg transferred to Columbia Law School, where she was elected to the school's law review. She graduated first in her class in 1959. Despite her outstanding academic record, however, Ginsburg continued to encounter gender discrimination while seeking employment after graduation. Ginsburg taught at Rutgers University Law School and at Columbia, where she became the school's first female tenured professor. During the 1970s, she also served as the director of the Women's Rights Project of the American Civil Liberties Union, for which she argued six landmark cases on gender equality before the U.S. Supreme Court. In 1980, President Jimmy Carter appointed Ruth Bader Ginsburg to the U.S. Court of Appeals. She served there until she was appointed to the U.S. Supreme Court in 1993 by President Clinton. Despite her reputation for restrained writing, she gathered considerable attention for her dissenting opinion in the case of Bush v. Gore. Objecting to the court’s majority opinion favoring Bush, Ginsburg deliberately and subtly concluded her decision with the words, “I dissent” a significant departure from the tradition of including the adverb “respectfully.” Justice Ginsburg's withering dissents and unrivaled work ethic have made her a formidable force on the Supreme Court floor for more than two decades. Now she's the unassuming star of an uplifting new documentary, RBG which charts her lifelong fight for women's and minorities' rights. #wcw #timeless #herstory
