Fireside Chat With Justice Anthony M. Kennedy and Secretary Condoleezza Rice | Hoover Institution
The Hoover Institution hosted a Fireside Chat with Justice Anthony M. Kennedy and Secretary Condoleezza Rice so Justice Kennedy could discuss his book "Life, Law & Liberty: A Memoir" on Friday, October 31, 2025, from 10:00 am PT in Shultz Auditorium, George P. Shultz Building.Throughout his thirty-year tenure on the US Supreme Court, Justice Anthony M. Kennedy authored landmark opinions on some of the most important issues facing America. Often defying expectations, Justice Kennedy’s pursuit of equal justice helped him define the law of the land for a generation. His pivotal vote in closely watched 5-4 decisions led Time magazine to call him “The Decider.” The last Justice to be confirmed to the Court unanimously (97–0) by the Senate, Anthony Kennedy serves as a role model for our fractious times, an example of civility, decency, and ethics, and a deeply principled guardian of liberty.
