“I’m gon’ call my crew” Steve Petteway, Collection of the Supreme Court of the United States

No one would be confusing the three women for one another. Her new colleagues, RBG said happily, are no “shrinking violets.” For some reason, people repeatedly have asked RBG when she thought there would be enough women on the court. The question is asinine, her answer effective: “When there are nine.”

RBG isn’t a shrinking violet either. At oral argument, she has become known for often asking the first question. It is usually incisive, even if people have to strain to hear her. “Her tiny size and quiet voice—combined with the bad acoustics of the courtroom—can mislead visitors to argument into underestimating the justice,” wrote Tom Goldstein, who frequently argues before the court. “It is not a mistake that the advocates make.”
