Marla Friedman’s evocative sculpture, ‘Equal Justice’, eloquently captures the essence of Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Antonio Scalia’s inspiring friendship and professional association, highlighting their camaraderie, collegiality and unwavering respect of the other’s often contrasting viewpoints while serving on the United States Supreme Court.


United States Supreme Court Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Antonin Scalia shared a remarkable friendship that transcended their ideological differences. Known as the intellectual titans of the left and right, they cultivated a unique bond characterized by mutual respect and common interests. Scalia was a staunch advocate of originalism and textualism, believing the Constitution should be interpreted based on its original meaning and the clear text of the law at the time it was written. Ginsburg, on the other hand, while starting with the original meaning, favored a more dynamic "living Constitution" approach, arguing that the document should be interpreted in a way that adapts to current social conditions and values. Their camaraderie began during their tenure on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit in the early 1980s, where they connected over a mutual appreciation for opera, even participating in operatic performances. Their families grew close as well, often celebrating New Years together. While their courtroom positions were often intense and intellectually profound in their differing viewpoints and ideologies, they remained respectful and supportive. Ginsburg acknowledged that Scalia's critiques of her opinions helped her refine her arguments. Their friendship and professional association serve as an inspiration; a poignant reminder of the possibility of civility and warmth in an era marked by increasing polarization.
