US Supreme Court Justice Sotomayor came to SLC on January 29, and I attended a Utah State Bar luncheon in her honor. Justice Sotomayor was very gracious, and she wandered around the ballroom at the Marriott, answering questions from the floor and posing for photographs. Her most-preached theme was the importance of diversity in law firms, and the equal importance of white males helping people of color and women to succeed. It is a theme the Utah Bar needs to hear over and over!
Justice Sotomayor paused for a question 5 feet from me, and I excitedly snapped photos on my iPhone. Unfortunately, I was beneath her and all I caught were shots of her ample bosom. It was just as well when I lost my iPhone and those precious, "I was there" pictures.
