Shortly after RBG’s passing in September 2020, Elinor Carucci was commissioned by Time magazine for a commemorative piece on the late justice, focused on the stories behind her legendary collars. On November 14, 2023, Penguin Random House is publishing the monograph "The Collars of RBG: A Portrait of Justice," in which Carucci and co-author Sara Bader use each collar to highlight a defining career moment, from RBG’s earliest argument for gender equality to her support of immigration and marriage equality during her twenty-seven years on the Supreme Court bench. Some of Justice Ginsburg's collars are well-known, like her dissent collar, or her favorite white beaded neckpiece that she wore for important portraits. Other collars are less familiar but tell poignant stories of artists, colleagues, friends, and fans whose gifts to Ginsburg found meaning in her hands.
