About this listen

Louis Brandeis was among the most prominent figures of his time. He was also the first Jewish person ever appointed to the Supreme Court. His life, his values and his Judaism offer important lessons which are detailed in a brand me childrens' book, What Louis Brandeis Knows by author Richard Michelson.

Richard is a return guest to the podcast, having previously been interviewed about his book Next Year at the White House. This conversation offers a look at a unique figure in American Jewish history from his childhood through his appointment to the Supreme Court and focuses on Brandeis's fight for social justice, emphasizing lessons about equality, privacy, and workers' rights that he learned from his father and uncle.
