Goldberg seat on the Supreme Court. He has proved to be an extraordinary judge and is one of the fairest people I know.19
Some lawyers describe their clerkships as interesting or career-enhancing "jobs." My clerkships were life-changing experiences, which continue to influence me to this day. There could be no better preparation for my life as a professor at Harvard Law School.
19 When he was finally appointed to the Supreme Court, he invited me to come to his swearing in at the White House, after which there was a little party, where wonderful White House cookies were being served. My daughter was then in elementary school and I thought it would be nice to bring to her class a bunch of White House cookies for their next snack period. I took a paper napkin with White House markings and I started to put as many cookies as I could in it and then into my pocket. Suddenly there was a tap on my shoulder, "Stealing cookies from the White House, huh?" It was Hillary. She told me I didn't have to do that. She would be happy to give me a large box to take home. The kids in my daughter's class loved the cookies and the story. But the truth is they weren't quite as good as my mother's.
