Memoir by retired Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy will be released this fall

Books Anthony M. Kennedy
March 27, 2025

An upcoming memoir by retired Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy has a new title and release date. Kennedy's book also will come out as a single publication, not in two volumes, as once planned.

Simon & Schuster announced Thursday that โ€œLife, Law, & Libertyโ€ will be released Oct. 14, one year later than scheduled. Kennedy's memoir was originally titled โ€œLife and Law.โ€ A spokesperson for Simon & Schuster, which first announced Kennedy's book deal in 2024, said the changes were part of the โ€œnatural evolution of the editing process.โ€

The 88-year-old Kennedy, who stepped down from the court in 2018, is expected to trace his life from his childhood in Sacramento, California, to his 30 years as a justice. He was known as a moderate conservative who cast decisive votes on same-sex marriage, campaign finance and abortion, among other cases.
