What is justice? Who decides the role of the courts as its arbiter? What is the Supreme Court’s place in upholding democracy and defending human rights?Join us as we welcome NPR’s Nina Totenberg for the third Forum of our spring season, as she shares her observations about the U.S. Supreme Court and how it has changed since she presented “Perspectives on the Supreme Court” at the Forum in spring 1993.
Totenberg is one of the country’s most respected journalists and legal affairs correspondents with more than 40 years’ experience at NPR covering the Supreme Court. Her deep experience and nuanced perspective provides insight into today’s judicial headlines. Totenberg has also penned "Dinners with Ruth: A Memoir on the Power of Friendships", a testament to her long friendship with Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg.
Totenberg has won every major journalism award in broadcasting and was the first radio journalist to win the National Press Foundation’s “Broadcaster of the Year” award. In 2023 she was inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame by the Museum of Broadcast Communications.
Totenberg will be joined in conversation with guest moderator Cathy Wurzer. She is host of Morning Edition on MPR News and co-host of “Almanac,” a weekly public affairs program produced by Twin Cities PBS for Minnesota’s statewide public television network. Wurzer has received numerous awards during her career, including being inducted into Minnesota Broadcaster’s Hall of Fame.
