This article is telling me that Sandra Day O’Connor retired. It says that she was born in Texas where she spent her early childhood on the Day Family’s 1980,000-acre cattle ranch. When she reached the school age her parents sent her to live with her grandmother in El Paso. She met her husband at her editor job at Stanford Law Review. They eventually got married after their graduation. They then settled in Phoenix, Arizona. O’Connor served as an Arizona assistant attorney general from 1965 to 1969, when she was appointed to a vacancy in the Arizona Senate. In 1974, she ran successfully for trial judge, a position she held until she was appointed to the Arizona Court of Appeals in 1979. Eighteen months later, on July 7, 1981President Ronald Reagan nominated her to the Supreme Court. In September 1981, Sandra Day O’Connor became the Court’s 102nd justice and its first female member. She made it clear that the high courts role in America society was to interpret he law, not to legislate. On July 1, 2005 Associate Justice O’Connor announced her retirement from the Supreme Court after 24 years of service on the bench.
