Born in the Bronx to immigrant parents from Puerto Rico, Sonia found out at age nine that she had diabetes, a serious illness now but an even more dangerous one fifty years ago. How did young Sonia handle the devastating news? She learned to give herself her daily insulin shots and became determined to make the most out of her life. It was the popular sixties TV show \u003ci\u003ePerry Mason\u003c\/i\u003e that made Sonia want to become a lawyer. Not only a lawyer but a judge! Her remarkable career was capped in 2009 when President Barack Obama nominated her to the Supreme Court, only the third woman in the court's history and the first Hispanic. Stories of Sotomayor's career are hardly dry legal stuff - she once hopped on a motorcycle to chase down counterfeiters and was the judge whose ruling ended the Major League baseball strike in 1995. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Expresiva, enÃ©rgica y divertida, Sonia Sotomayor ha logrado convertir cada lucha de su vida en un triunfo. Nacida en el Bronx de padres inmigrantes de Puerto Rico, Sonia descubriÃ³ a los nueve aÃ±os que tenÃ­a diabetes, una enfermedad grave ahora, pero aÃºn mÃ¡s peligrosa hace cincuenta aÃ±os.  CÃ³mo afrontÃ³ la joven Sonia la devastadora noticia? AprendiÃ³ a administrarse sus inyecciones diarias de insulina y se empeÃ±Ã³ en aprovechar al mÃ¡ximo su vida. Fue la popular serie de televisiÃ³n de los aÃ±os sesenta Perry Mason la que hizo que Sonia quisiera convertirse en abogada.  Y no solo abogada, sino tambiÃ©n jueza! Su extraordinaria carrera se vio coronada en 2009 cuando el presidente Barack Obama la nombrÃ³ miembro del Tribunal Supremo, siendo la tercera mujer en la historia del tribunal y la primera hispana. Las historias de la carrera de Sotomayor no son de orden jurÃ­dico: cierta vez se subiÃ³ a una motocicleta para perseguir a los falsificadores y fue la jueza cuya decisiÃ³n puso fin a la huelga de las Grandes Ligas de bÃ©isbol en 1995.","brand":"Penguin Workshop","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45085935632535,"sku":"9780593522660","price":481.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780593522660.webp?v=1767638562","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/quien-es-sonia-sotomayor-9780593522660","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
