About

In her inspiring, intimate memoir, the first Black woman to ever be appointed to the Supreme Court of the United States chronicles her extraordinary life story.

WABE and A Cappella Books are honored to welcome Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson to Atlanta Symphony Hall in honor of her new book, "Lovely One," on Thursday, September 5, at 7:30 PM.

Ticket options are as follows:

Admit one for $20 (does not include a copy of the book); or
Admit one for $50 (includes a pre-signed hardcover edition of "Lovely One," which you will receive at the venue.)

Justice Jackson will not be signing books after the program. All books will be presigned copies.

PLEASE NOTE: Although tickets are non-refundable, if you cannot attend, your ticket still entitles you to a signed copy of the book. A Cappella Books will hold your book for one month from the event date. You may pick it up in-store or call us to request shipping.
