Supreme Court pose for a group portrait in Washington, in December 1993. Born in 1933 in New York City, Ginsburg was the second woman to ever serve on the Supreme Court. Supreme Court Chief Justice William Rehnquist, right, administered the oath to defend the Constitution to Ruth Bader Ginsburg, as President Bill Clinton looked on, in the East Room of the White House, on August 10, 1993. Here’s a pictorial look back at some of the defining moments from Bader Ginsburg’s barrier-breaking career. This legacy was cemented later, in the Twitter Age, as a symbol of judicial resistance, under the moniker gifted to her by legions of fans, world-wide, for her strident dissents: the Notorious RBG. Throughout her career, she burnished her credentials as a fierce advocate for women’s rights, a reputation she developed while working for the ACLU on landmark gender discrimination cases. Before that, President Jimmy Carter nominated her to a 13-year tenure on the D.C. The liberal feminist icon made history by becoming the second woman to ever serve on the Supreme Court, to which she was nominated by President Bill Clinton in 1993. Trailblazing Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has died at 87.
