Glamour magazine's "Women of The Year" has come out and there's a familiar to us face on the list — Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
The woman who fought against sexually discriminatory laws in Oklahoma among other things is admired by other justices for her ability to be persuasive.
"She does it quietly, but she's very effective," Ginsburg's closest friend on the court, Justice Antonin Scalia, says of her.
America has been shaped by her actions in everything from health care reform to women's Social Security benefits, Glamour writes.
“I’m struck by how much she transcends her diminutive physical stature. She’s a giant up there," Rachel Maddow told Glamour.
