She recounts her nearly fifty-year friendship with Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Four years before Nina joined NPR, she called Ruth about a legal brief. Ruth explained her argument to strike down sex-based discrimination. That call began a remarkable friendship that spanned decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDinners with Ruth tells how two women tore down professional and legal barriers. It shows how friendships helped women pry open career doors and transform the workplace. The book follows them through joy, illness, loss, and widowhood. Nina remembers how Ruth supported her during her husband’s fatal illness. Years later, Nina supported Ruth after her husband’s death. They shared a love of opera and shopping. They treated clothes as armor in a male-dominated workplace. In Ruth’s last year, Saturdays were “reserved for Ruth” at Nina’s house.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe memoir also sketches portraits of Nina’s NPR colleagues Cokie Roberts and Linda Wertheimer. It includes her friendships with Supreme Court Justices Lewis Powell, William Brennan, and Antonin Scalia. Nina writes about her father, violinist Roman Totenberg, and her sisters, whom she calls her best friends. Inspiring and revelatory, Dinners with Ruth celebrates the joy and true meaning of friendship.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Amazon.com bestsellers","offers":[{"title":"paperback","offer_id":49812664221935,"sku":"9781982188092 (PB)","price":31.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0795\/2983\/6783\/files\/71jqjohKGLL.jpg?v=1781618028","url":"https:\/\/efinitoindia.com\/products\/dinners-with-ruth-a-memoir-on-the-power-of-friendships","provider":"Efinito","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
