Ms Totenberg does not have any degrees and did not attend law school.

sources:
"Totenberg, 47, who joined NPR in 1975, after serving as Washington
correspondent for New Times magazine, is widely viewed as the nation's
premier law reporter, ...Not bad for someone who dropped out of Boston
University (to work for a newspaper) and never went to either
journalism or law school."

Nina Totenberg does have a few "honorary degrees,"  though.

I'm delighted with your answer.  It contained the information I was
seeking and more.

What did you search on to obtain the information?

Thank you for the tip.

I searched on Google. I started out with: "nina totenberg", born 
://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=%22nina+totenberg%22%2C+born+

That search produced some information about her father, her birth in
1944, etc.

I then did additional searches using additional phrases such as "law
school."

Thanks again.

Thank you again.
