Who's the tallest Justice?

Justice CorriganToday's DJ profiles Supreme Court Justice Carol Corrigan, starting off with her imposing stature: At 6 feet tall, she's about half a foot taller than her fellow justices.
She's also "exceptionally witty and funny"; she once asked a lawyer at oral argument "Do you want a pony for the holidays, too?"
The article discusses her "blue-collar roots," her maroon 2004 Buick sedan, and her right-leaning, conservative bent. She is "consistently one of the most engaged justices" at oral argument.
