Ketanji Brown Jackson Shared A Scene With A Future Star During Drama Class At Harvard

In a new interview, the Supreme Court Justice recounted her time collaborating with someone who would end up being a Hollywood hotshot.

Long before her time on the bench, Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson acted opposite future Oscar-winner Matt Damon while they were both students at Harvard University.

In an interview with “CBS Sunday Morning” over the weekend, the jurist remembered working with the “Good Will Hunting” star, telling host Norah O’Donnell how the two were in the same drama class as Harvard undergrads.

Jackson said that she and Damon never worked in “an actual performance” together, but did end up as scene partners in one of their theater classes.

“He’s not going to remember this, of course,” Jackson laughed. “The reason why I remember it is because he was already kind of well-known around campus and off campus, so it was kind of exciting to be his scene partner for a particular class.”

After the two students teamed up to do an excerpt from “Waiting for Godot,” Jackson ended up with high marks, while the professor left Damon with a few notes for on his performance, she recalled.
