I was just reading her wikipedia page. Toobin is her good friend. LOL

n 1983, at age 23, Kagan entered Harvard Law School. Her adjustment to Harvard's atmosphere was rocky; she received the worst grades of her entire law school career in her first semester. Kagan went on to earn an A in 17 of the 21 courses she took at Harvard.[28] She was also immersed in the law as a summer associate in the law offices of Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson, a Wall Street firm in New York, where she worked in the litigation department.[29] In 1986 she received a Juris Doctor, magna cum laude, from Harvard Law School, where she was supervisory editor of the Harvard Law Review.[30][31] Her friend Jeffrey Toobin recalls that Kagan "stood out from the start as one with a formidable mind. She's good with people. At the time, the law school was a politically charged and divided place. She navigated the factions with ease, and won the respect of everyone."[32]

In 2010, then-President Barack Obama nominated Elena Kagan to the Supreme Court while she was serving her term as Solicitor General of the United States. Jeffrey Toobin, who attended Harvard at the same time as Kagan, praised the pick in a column in The New Yorker. He claimed they were "introduced by a mutual friend," "worked together for the entire year" in a study group, and that he was the "unofficial campaign manager" for Kagan "when she ran for she ran for president of the law review."

Toobin also claimed Kagan attended his 1986 wedding, and that he visited Kagan's family after her mother died. "We are old friends. So my initial reaction to her nomination is a simple one: happiness for her," he wrote. "As I cover her nomination, and, if she is confirmed (as she likely will be) her career on the Court, readers should know this history and decide what difference, if any, it makes. For starters, from now on, I'll be calling her Kagan, not Elena."
