Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson is visiting Atlanta to promote her new memoir, 'Lovely One'

Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson is stopping by the Atlanta Symphony Hall on Sept. 5 on a high-profile, nationwide tour to promote her new memoir, “Lovely One.”

Jackson, 53, is using the book, publisher Random House says, to trace her family’s rise from segregation to her confirmation as the first Black woman on the nation’s highest court in the span of one generation. “It is the story of the promise of America,” she said in a television interview that aired Sunday.

She also is the first public defender to serve as a justice and she delves into advancing in the legal profession as a woman of color and a mother balancing a demanding career and family life.
