NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg never sought fame - she only tried to make the world a little better and a little freer. However, nearly half a century into her career, something funny happened to the octogenarian: she conquered the internet. Across America, people who weren't even born when Ginsburg made her name as a feminist pioneer are getting tattoos of her face, turning her famous dissenting opinions into music, and creating viral videos in her honor.
Notorious RBG, inspired by the Tumblr that amused the Justice herself and presented by its founder and an award-winning feminist journalist, is more than a love letter. It draws from exclusive access to Ginsburg's family members, close friends, colleagues, and clerks, as well as an interview with the Justice herself. The book's original combination of reported narrative, annotated dissents, rare archival photographs and documents, and illustrations captures a story never told before, about an unusual and transformative woman who transcends generational divides.
As the country grapples with the unfinished work of gender equality and civil rights, Ginsburg stands as a testament to how far we can come with a little persistence.
