1. What did the author learn about Ginsburg as they wrote the book?

The authors are in awe of what they learned about Ginsburg when they wrote the book. She had been extraordinary her entire life, but she never wanted to be a solo performer. She was committed to bringing up other women and underrepresented people. She was committed to working with her colleagues even when it seemed impossible.

Ginsburg presented a fragile, bowed appearance by the time she was in her 80s. People had thought that she would retire when she was diagnosed with cancer--twice. They also thought that she would not be able to go on after the death of Marty Ginsburg, her husband of 56 years. She continued to show up to do the work of the court without missing a day. She pulled all-nighters, leaving her clerks voice mails with instructions at two or three in the morning.
