Who Ruth Bader Ginsburg was

Ginsburg served as the 107th justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. Before joining the Court, she built a legal career challenging gender discrimination. USPS honored her majority opinions, influential dissents and public association with equal justice while recognizing her place in American culture.

Who this 100-stamp pack suits
