Who is Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, Biden's nominee to replace AG Garland on powerful DC Circuit Court?

D.C. District Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson is President Biden's nominee to fill the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals seat of newly-minted Attorney General Merrick Garland, making her the most high-profile choice among the president's first round of judicial nominations.

If confirmed to the D.C. Circuit, she will join a bench that is considered the second-highest court in the land and has a long tradition of producing Supreme Court justices, including Justices Brett Kavanaugh, Antonin Scalia, Ruth Bader Ginsburg and many others.  Jackson comes with the kind of credentials seen in many nominees to appeals courts, including a law degree from Harvard Law School and a clerkship with Justice Stephen Breyer. She also clerked on the First Circuit before that and in the District of Massachusetts.
