Featuring the relationship between two polar opposites and modern day legends, Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Sandra Day O’Connor, Sisters in Law celebrates a friendship transcending party, religion and culture. Sisters in Law is the true story that explores the inexplicable bond between the U.S. Supreme Court’s first two female justices as they grapple with matters of national law and personal belief.

Sandra Day O’Connor, first woman on the Supreme Court, and new colleague, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, battle over a case that exposes their deepest conflicts and what it means to “do justice.” Raised to rope and ride on the Lazy-B Ranch, appointed by President Reagan, O’Connor is a charismatic, extroverted former Arizona State Senator, fond of compromise. Appointed by President Clinton, Ginsburg is the “Mother of the Feminist Movement,” an introverted New York intellectual and former director of the ACLU’s litigation strategy, eager to achieve gender equality as soon as possible. Almost immediately, the women are confronted by a case that lays bare their most deeply held personal and political beliefs, pitting them against one another in a battle over the future of the Court, the soul of the country, and the meaning of “doing justice.” Raising timely questions of how we can resolve our deepest differences, Sisters-in-Law has been reviewed as “fast-paced, funny and fascinating,” “brilliantly written," and “a quiet triumph”.
