I met RBG at her office at Columbia Law School, sent you meet her by the Washington Women’s Network around 1974. She was working on a project: a review of sex bias in the US Code for the US Commission on Civil Rights. She was so dedicated, so meticulous in her review... and made an indelible impression. I later went to law school and taught Women and the Law and Women and Employment Law Worldwide in a University in Japan for 22 years.
Ruth was the model of Jewish resilience and humility for younger generations of lawyers. She refused to retire when she knew she was making a significant contribution to our country’s jurisprudence. She is a model for many of us. Let’s honor her memory going forward. Let’s carry on in her memory.
