Retired Supreme Court Justice Anthony M. Kennedy is set to release a two-volume memoir this fall, chronicling his life journey from his upbringing in California to his three-decade tenure on the court. The memoir, titled “Life and Law: The Early Years” and “Life and Law: The Court Years,” is scheduled for publication on October 1 by Simon & Schuster. The two volumes will be available as a boxed set or as individual editions, each spanning approximately 320 pages.
During his time on the bench, Justice Kennedy played a pivotal role in several landmark cases that shaped American jurisprudence. Notably, he authored the majority opinion in cases such as Obergefell v. Hodges, which established the constitutional right to same-sex marriage, and Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, which allowed for unlimited spending by corporations and external entities in election campaigns.
