If you haven't read Notorious RBG, I highly recommend it.

Scientists like Feynman and Oppenheimer ("father of the Atomic Bomb"), also native New Yorkers.

Also Alexander Hamilton (not native, but mostly associated with NYC). He's cool enough to have a hit Broadway show about his life. Although if we're getting political, what's better than FDR, the guy who bitch slapped the Nazis while fighting a whole other war across the world.

But, of people alive today, I'd say Ruth Bader Ginsberg -- by a wide margin the most badass member of the Supreme Court as evidenced by this book.

Yes! I wish the interview was longer. I also just got a copy of [Notorious RBG] (https://www.amazon.com/Notorious-RBG-Times-Bader-Ginsburg/dp/0062415832/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=) and her time in law school was so inspiring as well.

If you like that, you should buy the book

she actually has a biography that's a New York Times bestseller by that name

I just started this. I'm kind of in love.

Thanks for the info! Gifts can be so challenging. I'm sure she'll appreciate whatever you get her and that you went through the trouble of trying to find a thoughtful gift!

​

One of these literary mugs would go great if you decide to do a coffee-themed gift!

​

Tickets to a concert of a band she likes?

​

Since she's studying psychology, she might get a kick of out this phrenology head bust. Especially if her end goal is to be a therapist or psychologist, she could ultimately put it in her office.

​

Since she likes learning about influential people throughout history, if she's a fan of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, this book is super popular.

​

Being in college, a portable charger would come in handy if she doesn't already have one! A nice bag 1, 2 would last a long time, so she could even use it at the start of her career. Or an Instant Pot for a quicker way for her to cook her meals. I wish Instant Pot would have been around when I was in college!

​

Some other ideas:

If she lives in a dorm or apartment, she may like decorating with a wall tapestry (1, 2, 3, 4)

Ring with the coordinates of her school or hometown

Female empowerment necklace
