A labor of love and gorgeous artistry: Patrice Michaels, Director of Vocal Studies at the University of Chicago and voice and opera lecturer at Northwestern University, wrote a musical tribute for her mother-in-law, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, back in 2018. Later, a concert was realized in dramatization of the tribute. And just recently, Northwestern University published a documentary about the making and performance of the tribute. Michaels reflects on the project, what it meant to her mother-in-law, and what it means to her. (AP Photo/Charles Dharapak, File)
