Video coverage of U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor’s appearance
in Scottsdale to discuss her new children’s book, Chico, will air this weekend
nationally on the Book TV series on CSPAN-2.
The program airs Sunday, Sept. 25, at 1 and 7 p.m.
Scottsdale’s own CityCable 11 channel will carry coverage of the event every
Sunday in October at 2, 6 and 9 p.m.
O’Connor discussed her newly released book for the first time before a packed
house Sept. 18 at the Scottsdale Civic Center Library Auditorium.
The book recounts a true-life story about an incident with her horse, Chico, and the
lessons she learned while growing up on a ranch on the Arizona-New Mexico border. During
her appearance, O’Connor answered questions from children in the audience and shared
memories about a pet bobcat, playing poker with cowboys and learning to ride horses.
