She also directs the law school's Kernochan Center For Law, Media and the Arts. In 2011, Ginsburg was elected to the British Academy, a distinct and rare honor for American scholars.
Ginsburg attended The Brearley School. An expert on copyright, Ginsburg has written various treatises and law review articles. She received her B.A. and M.A. degrees from the University of Chicago, her J.D. from Harvard Law School, a DEA with a Fulbright grant (1985), and a Doctor of Law (1995) from Panthéon-Assas University. At Harvard, she served as an editor of the Harvard Law Review. After law school, she clerked for Judge John Gibbons of the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit.
She is the daughter of United States Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and law professor Martin Ginsburg, both of whom formerly served on the Columbia Law School faculty. Justice Ginsburg and Jane are the first mother–daughter pair ever to serve on the same law faculty in the United States. Her brother is Cedille Records founder James Steven Ginsburg.
She lives with her husband, George T. Spera, Jr., who works for noted law firm Shearman & Sterling. They have two children. Paul Spera, an actor, graduated from Yale in 2008 with a double major in French and theater studies. Clara Spera graduated from Harvard Law School in 2017 and is engaged to Rory Boyd.
