“RBG’s Brave and Brilliant Jewish Women: 33 Jewish Women to Inspire Everyone”

Seating is first come, first served and requires general registration.

During the last year of her life, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg sat down with Moment editor-in-chief Nadine Epstein to discuss the Jewish women she found inspiring. In Epstein’s book RBG’s Brave and Brilliant Women: 33 Jewish Women to Inspire Everyone, she profiles the women Ginsburg identified and reflects on each of their stories. The trailblazers in the book, like Ginsburg herself, fought to forge a better world rather than accepting it as it was. Epstein will be in conversation with best-selling author Amy B. Scher.
