Clarence Thomas was confirmed to the Supreme Court in 1991 with a narrow Senate vote of 52-48. The senators who voted against his confirmation included Democrats such as Joe Biden, Ted Kennedy, and Dianne Feinstein, among others. Their opposition was largely due to concerns over his judicial philosophy and allegations of sexual harassment made by Anita Hill during the confirmation hearings.

Clarence Thomas is only the second African-American to sit on the Supreme Court. He was nominated by George H. W. Bush to replace the retiring Thurgood Marshall (the first African-American Justice) in 1991. Thomas was made infamous during the Senate confirmation hearing, lead by Republican-turned-Democrat Senator Arlen Specter, when a former employee, lawyer Anita Hill, accused him of sexual harassment. No legal action was taken against Thomas due to lack of convincing evidence, but the Senate Judiciary Committee was split 7-7 in their opinion and sent his nomination to the Senate Floor without recommendation. Thomas is considered to be one of the most conservative Justices in the history of the Court.
Clarence Thomas and Kathy Ambush divorced in 1984. Their marriage, which began in 1971, ended after several years of challenges, including allegations of infidelity and personal differences. The divorce was finalized after a lengthy separation.
