A Bronx Childhood
Sonia Sotomayor was born in the Bronx in 1954. Her parents were both Puerto Rican immigrants, and they worked hard to provide for their family. Sotomayor grew up in a small apartment with her parents and her brother. The family was poor, but they were close-knit and loving.

But she also found strength and support in her family and community. Her parents taught her the importance of hard work and perseverance, and her teachers encouraged her to pursue her dreams.
