Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Remembered

On Sept. 18, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg passed away after her battle with metastatic pancreatic cancer. Ginsburg had served on the court since she was appointed by Bill Clinton in 1993. At the time of her appointment, she was only the second woman to have served on the court. Before that, she had been appointed by Jimmy Carter in 1980 to serve on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. A majority of her legal career was spent advocating and arguing for gender equality and women's rights.
