Why Cardozo?

In 1932, President Herbert Hoover appointed Benjamin Nathan Cardozo to the Supreme Court of the United States. Mr. Cardozo was the second Jew, after Louis D. Brandeis, to serve on the nation's highest court. Previously, Cardozo served as judge on the New York State Supreme Court and as Chief Judge of the Court of Appeals. more
