What better motivation to bring us together for a community read than a celebration of friendship. In our next session, we will discuss stellar NPR court reporter Nina Tottenberg’s memoir: Dinners with Ruth, which explores her 50-year friendship with Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg.

Weaving together stories of their personal and professional bonds, this memoir speaks to the power of friendship to help inspire both women to navigate, with strength, their experiences of illness, loss and widowhood, alongside career and legal hurdles. Theirs is also a Jewish friendship; we’ll look at how this is so. Come prepared to share in a few words who is your “Ruth” and why.
